I can testify that God is our loving Heavenly Father. He knows us so well, and if we look for his love we will find it. I testify of the importance of having the faith to follow promptings. Eddy was really prideful when I first met him. He had been visiting with missionaries for years, and was unwilling to heed the Lord´s will, even when he had a testimony of the church. But we felt prompted to put a baptismal date with him right away, even though he had to give up alcohol and was definitely not spiritually ready yet. We prayed so much for him and to know if the date was correct, and our faith carried us through.
The push changed him, and the Lord knew his time on earth was coming to a close. He was humbled a lot by his health problems. He read the Book of Mormon every day and said, ¨The more I read it, the more I am convinced it´s true. I want to keep reading, it is a pleasure to read it.¨ He had a change of heart, he is ready for baptism. And I will be there for his baptism in the Santo Domingo temple. And his sealing to Sonia. We just have to change the date one more time for January of 2017.
Love you all very much and love hearing about what´s going on with Ethan and Alex. Hope Dad is taking care of his health!
Till next week,
