The One Where He Actually Writes

Internets.
When you woke up this morning did you feel the miracle?
Did the universe seem somehow more in harmony?
Elder Wadley wrote an actual e-mail!
Behold:
this week was pretty sick we had some cool things happen We have been teaching this family its a mom and two girls and they've been progressing really well except they hadn't come to church yet and right before sacrament meeting started I saw Elder Cepeda on the phone and he said they're coming! they had just gotten lost on the way so they showed up and were able to hear some of the testimony's of the branch and one of the girls gave me a note that said that she had a lot of questions before we started coming but they have all been answered it was really dope. Another thing that happened this week is we have a member in the branch who is struggling and we have been able to meet with him lately and last night he told me that he believes that I was sent here just for him
I want to take a minute and point out a couple of thoughts that came to me here.

First, how imperative it is that followers of Christ bear testimony of Christ.
Some questions that people carry in their hearts can be answered by our personal testimonies and examples. When the Holy Ghost bears His witness to the words we are moved to speak, we have the potential to change hearts, and bring peace and hope.

Second, the personalities that we have each been born with, and the unique connections we make with others gives us the opportunity to reach people in a way that NO ONE ELSE CAN.

God does not want us to be anyone other than ourselves when we serve Him.
It is interesting though, how when we do choose to serve, we become better versions of ourselves.
It's all part of the deal. Him adding His divine power to our efforts.
Pretty cool.
I love that Elder Brendan is learning this.
I know that this will help his confidence. 
I am grateful that the Lord knows exactly how to use him to do His work.
