GOD IS TRULY REAL

"Each day holds the possibility of a miracle."

This has been such a busy and crazy week. We had so many miracles and so many blessings that God put in our path. But to start it off we had an exchange and I got to go up to Maryville again for the 3rd time. It was super fun and I loved it a lot, I was with Elder Daynes and he is such a stud. We got to go to the college campus for a little bit which was fun but also really weird. Felt like I was back at home going around campus talking with the bros again. Then the next day we had Soccer night! Wow what a turn out, God knew that we needed a soccer night, because we had 17 people show up first week. We had so many more people interested that didn't have rides this week, it was literally insane! I got to play soccer so it was the best of both worlds. We met many awesome people, but the one that stuck out the most was Carlos and Diego. Carlos and Diego are brothers and they moved to St Joseph not to long ago they both have incredible stories on how they quit smoking! Carlos said that he's been trying to find Christian friends since he moved and hasn't found anyone till we came on his Facebook out of nowhere. God is so real and he put Carlos in our path. Ever since that night Carlos has been texting me on Facebook asking about activities and church things going on. But the craziest miracle we saw was on Friday. Friday evening we were driving around knocking on people's doors when we randomly ran into Diego, Diego said let me go get Carlos and went inside. Carlos came out and said for us to come in and talk to him for a bit. Now this is the craziest part. Carlos told us he was praying to God to show him a sign that he was real, when 5 seconds after he prayed we randomly showed up to his house on accident having no idea where he even lived, and were able to help him know that God is truly real! It was one of the coolest experiences of my life! There is no explanation for that other than God is real and he has a plan for all of us. Since that day Carlos has read all of 3 Nephi and is now starting from the front of El Libro De Mormón, and he has watched general conference. I knew God was going to bless me for starting up soccer night, but I didn't know how much hahaha. With Confrence this weekend my brain kinda hurts and we received so much inspiration that I'm so exhausted but it was such a good way to end the week and can't wait to see what happens next week. Loved the central message of conference this weekend of finding rest and truth in Jesus Christ.
