(Elder Cummings)
So we were at the church making a couple calls and we were
about to head out to find some new friends to teach. Our man Brother Sisson
walked in to clean the church and, not thinking too much of it, we were like
"Hey Brother Sisson! Can you say a prayer for us before we go out?".
He says of course and offers the most sincere and powerful prayer where he
prays that angels will go before us and prepare and make ready people to hear
our message. He prays that the Spirit be poured into the hearts of the people and
they will be humble and ready.
Elder O and I look at each other and are like "man. We
better have the faith to see the answer to that prayer because that was
amazing. Let's not put Bro Sissons prayer to waste". So we get biking in
the blistering wet heat(this week the plastic covering on Elder O's helmet
shrunk cause the heat melted it).
We stop across the street from this house and this chained
dog started just barking at us like nothing else. This dog was MEAN. We just
stand there while this lady slams open the door and is like "WHATCHU YOU
DONE DISTRUBIN MY DAWG LIKE THAT". We was thinking "oh boy, we need
an angel to go before us on this one".
She steps down and just smiles at us and says "I'm just
playing, but yall did disrupt me from prayin"
We get talking to Ms Felicia and learn that she was on her
knees praying to God at that very moment for help and a sign when her dog
starting barking it's head off. She opens the door and sees two young men
preaching the Word on bikes. As we continue to talk with her we learn that she
is still grieving from the death of her husband and has a lot lot more going
on. We were able to testify of God's loving mercy and plan of happiness for all
His children. I am so grateful to have been an instrument in the Lord's hands.
I love it.
Another update: Willie and Tracie got baptized and confirmed
this week!! They are so so awesome and I love seeing the Lord change people
from the inside out.
God Bless
