Dear Family,
What a week so many blessings have just come out of no where. I know for sure this is the lords work and all i can do is qualify to be a tool in his hands to say what he would have me say. Go where he would have me go, and act as he would have me act. On Thursday I prayed for all of my investigators and asked the lord when he wanted them to be baptized. Well on Friday we had a temple tour with Christine Vernon Violet, and Theresa. Christine, to our dismay was a little drunk so the spirit didn't really have a chance to touch her heart that night but her husband Vernon did become a little more interested. At the end he was firing questions to Elder Jensen about the temple and wondering why he couldn't go all the way in. Well Also at the same time I was off with Thereasa talking to her. I shared Mosiah 18 with her to help her realize that she is prepared for baptism. She was touched by the spirit and began to tell me how i could read her like a book. Well after that we talked about why her baptism date was so far back and she said she was really worried about her husband because he's really not supportive right now. Well after listening to her concerns she started talking to me about how she knows she is ready. So I opened my planner and showed her what date I had written down. Well I have to let you know that i was thinking of two different dates oct. 9th and the 16th so I had wrote both of them down. Well while i was praying thursday night I felt like the 16th would give her a little extra time to prepare so I circled it. Then i asked her to pray about that date that I had shown her when she sarted to cry a little. She then asked me did you have oct 9th written down. I opened up my planner and said yes, she said I've dreamed about that date I know that's the date that i'm supposed to be baptized. I was just in awe, that was the lord completely i'm just very glad I was intune enough to talk to her about it.
Well if you think that that's enough you really don't understand the tender mercies of god. Because this week we had Wanda, a former investigator, text us and tell us she wanted to be baptized on oct 25th. She wanted to know what she needed to do. She works with a lot of Mormons and they have been helping her and teaching her and she is now ready. I know this is the lords work and it will continue on the lord has been so merciful to the Cocoa area and many souls are coming unto him. I would ask that yall would pray for Thereasa and Wanda's families that they will soften their hearts and not cause so much grief for them.
Thanks love Elder Judd
