So Sister Fish and I did just that. We tracted in 10 degree weather for 4 hours that day.
I had the most amazing experience ever and I am about to share it with you:)
So we had an appointment fall through and the member dropped us off at our apartment, and we had nothing to do. Sister Fish was fumbling with the phone searching for someone to see, when I spoke up and said "I think the reason everything is falling through is because we need to go find someone." I just kept feeling like someone needed to be found! So we crossed the street and the first door we knocked on a man and his two children opened the door and I KNEW HIM! Ok I didn't know him, but I just knew that I knew him.
As we testified of the gospel he said he was moving to Missouri at the end of the week and that we couldn't come back to meet with him. Sister Fish offered him the Book of Mormon and he accepted it, and we went on our way. But as we walked away I had this overwhelming feeling that everything would be ok.
All day I had been praying that I could be an answer to someone's prayer, That I could ease someone's burden, and bring them closer to Jesus Christ in the smallest way. But while walking away I knew they would find the gospel. I knew that they would be able to live with each other forever. I knew that everything was going to be ok. And I could hear in my head the words of a blessing I got while I was in Ponca that said that I would touch millions of lives on my mission. And somehow I knew that this man that I had met was going to help me accomplish that.
This week my testimony has grown so much. and I feel closer to my Heavenly Father more than ever. I am so grateful for the knowledge I have of this gospel and that I know that I can live with my wonderful family forever. That is such a blessing that I took for granted for a long time. Now I understand the importance of that. My heart is full of gratitude for my Savior, for my family, and for my Heavenly Father. I love you all and hope you enjoy the beautiful snow for me!! I love you to the moon and back!
Love, Sister Webber
