Week 29 Marugame: Painting Testimonies

konnichiwa my friends,

this week has been Another great week in marugame! our investigator

jesus [hey soos] is doing amazing! this last sunday we had an amazing

leSson with him. we were talKing about him and his efforts to receive

an answer to his prayers, And he basically taught himself, or actually

Now that i think about it, it was probably the spirit teaching him!

ah, i love it! he tolD us how he knows that he needs to just keep

praYing because Even though he doesn't feel like he has received an

answer yet, if he stopS now then there's no way that He will get an

answer. he was like the picture perfect investigator. we next went to

moroni 10:3-5 and broke down every element of the scripturAl promise

and he just ate that stuff up. he is such a smart guy and enjoys

discovering the very deeper meaning to things given that he is an

artist. and then actuaLly after we broke down the scripture he

compared his experiences in finding an answer to his prayers to

painting a picture. we then testified to him that the Lord knows

exactly what his potential is and as long as he continues to allow the

lord to guide his search in discovering the answer to his prayeRs then

someday he will step back and be able to seE that the lord had been

painting him into a masterpiece. it was awesome, it was like we were

all in a mormon message playing out the picture perfeCt lesson. he is

progressing so wEll and i would not be surprised at all if very soon

he calls us and tells us that he is ready to be baptized. i am so

excited! great things are happening here and i love it! i love this

work so much. seeing the gospel of christ change people's hearts and

attItudes is the greatest thing in the world. thank you so much for

all of your loVe and support! i love you all so much!

bEing a missionary rocks!
