One cool experience happened just last night.  I was on an exchange with another Elder named Elder Kim.  We got back to the church to switch back with our regular comps.  Then me and Elder Sharp went off to dinner at a members house.  It was way good!!!  After that we went tracting and found this 21 year old sitting out front of his house. He has been having problems with his family and didn’t know what to do.  So, we talked to him and taught him a little about the Book of Mormon and how it can help him out with these problems and to pray about it.  It was really cool. You could tell that the kid was struggling in life and needed help.

After that, we had a feeling to stop by a members’ house to find out what members lived around them. They invited us in and to eat with them so we did.  We talked and had a great time there.  Just before we were getting up to go, the wife asked us a question “DO U EVER FEEL LIKE YOU’RE INSPIRED?"  I said “yes.”  Then she asked, “Do you Elders feel like you were inspired to come over tonight?”  Then Elder Sharp told her about our day and why we choose to come over there. Then she said last week, when we met with the family, we taught a lesson about Alma. That next Sunday she was giving a lesson in Relief Society and it ended up being about Alma and what we taught her family. She said it gave her good confidence in teaching the lesson. Next she said she asked her husband for a blessing earlier that day, but the husband was out of oil.  Then we showed up at the house. The spirit was soooooooooo strong!  It is one memory I will always remember for my life.  The lord truly does put you in places you need to be in. It was so sweeettttt!!! That’s just one of many of experiences I have had lately.
