So I want to start off by sharing
this really cool spiritual story and then I will share some super funny and
weird ones that happened this week...
So we went by an investigators house
that Sister Stoehr met while on splits, but sadly she wasn't there. But! Her
younger brother Mike was. He is 18 and barkada as in! I don't know how to
describe it but kinda like this: they hang out with close group of not so good
guys, drink, and smoke, he joked that he could rap. SO kinda a wanna be thug,
mixed with I 'm to lazy so I will pose about it. Basta, that's him! We asked
him though if we could teach and he welcomed us in, very entertaining. As we
started talking about the Godhead with him, we could see his face get very
somber... Sis Stoehr asked him then how his relationship with God...
"50/50.. it’s hard to explain." we then asked him and he opened up
about he isn't sure if he really does love him or that he cares and that he
will bless him. He couldn’t tell the difference between coincidences and His
hand, or that he was really there for him. We then bore such amazing testimony
of his love and his want for him to come back to His kingdom, but that it also
depended on his actions which part of the kingdom he could go....This is the
really cool part. He told us what he was picturing in his head as we had been
testifying...... He said he facing this hall way that was straight and wide and
got wider near the end as if it were on opening. He described what he saw once
he got there as this: It started from a yellow light, to a white, and then to a
dark black. Me and sister Stoehr were silent... Did he really know what he had
just seen? We then asked him, "Which light did you go to?" He said we
was just there and hadn't decided. "What one do you want to go to?"
"Yellow." IT is amazing how revelation can happen!! We told him he
was right and that we could talk more about it in the next lesson! It was so
cool!!!!!!!
Now for the funny stories....
So we went by to go to our LA Analyn
and to teach her Korean students on the 4th, but to get to there REALLY nice
house, you have to go through this bukid area. Meaning it was forestry and
there was some caribao and cows and lots of tall grass... we found out there
was a beautiful street on the other side when we got there. Anyways, as we were
walking through, I see this really small baby cow just standing there.
"Sis Stoehr, look a baby cow! I'm gonna touch it!" .... Bad Idea.
Mama cow was actually behind us a few yards and she came charging! Hahaha I just
yelled, "RUN!!" and we booked it! I kept telling her too "High
grass! Tall knees!" while we were running! Papa didn’t raise no fool!
HAhah, plus there could have been stuff we would have tripped and face planted
it on :) Haha when we got to the house though it was all good and the Koreans
got a good crack out of it! They could hear us screaming :) Hahahah I attached
a picture, the one next to me is Song Juheon, he is a member too and went home
on sat. his 3 years here were up! It was a great 4th to say the least! Plus we
had a delicious(baby size) watermelon! Cost us so much! But we needed a bit of
AMERICA to make it feel real!
I love you all and hope y'all have a
great week! LOVES!!!!
