The Lord has a plan

Dear familia y amigos,

This are going by fast but great things are happening. Our investigadores are doing great. We have found some new families to teach which is a great blessing. Gama has told us that he has found another church and no longer wants to learn more. It is sad but at least I know we did what we could. But the good news is Daniel is a stud. He couldnt come to church this past week but we called him yesterday and made an oppointment to pass by this week. Before we hung up he told us ¨Hey, dont forget to bring me a Book of Mormon. I bought some glasses so that I can read it now.¨ All I could think was that Heavenly Father is preparing the hearts of the people. 

I had the chance to go on exchanges with another elder in the zone. that is when we change companions for one day to learn from one another and see how things are going. I went with one of our district leaders in the zone named elder graves. when we went out we had the chance to teach an investigador of his named, ariel. Ariel is thinking about getting baptized and his wife is a member of the church. We have been praying and fasting a lot for him as a zone. Anyways, in the lession he told us that he had a dream of elder graves. in the dream elder graves was giving a him book of mormon and told him that his anwser was found in it. Elder Graves and I were blown away and asked him what he that he should do now. He responded ¨I need to start reading the Book of Mormon¨. Just another example of the Lord preparing the hearts of the people here.

Just like Heavenly Father is preparing the hearts of the people to accept the gospel his is also preparing our lives. He has many things in work and a lot of time we can see it and we just dont understand why things turn out the way they do. Or, sometimes we think, ¨why hasnt anything happened yet¨. Although I may not know what the Lord always has planned, I know that He has a plan. I testify of the goodness of our Father in Heaven. He loves us greatly and knows what we need. I am greatful that He has given me this time in the mission. I love Him.

Thank you all so much. Have a great week.

Love 
Elder Nobmann Riddle
