On Saturday we had 4
amazing lessons planned and everyone we went to dropped us! We were questioned
whether everyone let the adversary got a hold of them and they decided to not
listen to us anymore, but we were trying to not let it get us down so we were going
trying our hardest to find out where we needed to be and where we were lacking
the spirit. We could feel the adversary fighting us very hard preventing us
from working and being successful, but we did our best and we were so confused
as to why the adversary was fighting so hard well we found out why. On
Sunday evening we went to see a part member family the husband was
baptized a couple weeks ago and his wife has been in and out of learning well
we found out Vern, the wife, is having surgery the next day and we offered to
ask some men to come and give her a blessing and so we had our bishop and a
less active member, and a patriarch come and give her a blessing. We were
talking and the three just brought the spirit into the room and when they gave
her the blessing it was so powerful and she was so peaceful and happy so after
the blessing we talked about baptism and she said because of the way she felt
she wants to be baptized after she recovers! The spirit was so thick. The
face of the husband was so priceless he was so happy and after we all left we
just felt happier, everyone did. When we got to the car we just cried it
was so intense after all the felling of darkness we found the light again and
we knew right there and then that the adversary was preventing us from going
there to help Vern but I learned the priesthood is so much more powerful
and it is real it is the light and chases darkness away I know it is true I
know Satan is real and he is seeking every day to destroy happiness but he will
not win. I am so grateful for this past week for the struggle and I
am grateful for the priesthood and the power to overcome the darkness and bring
light and peace in light we find peace and happiness in darkness we find
loneliness and fear. I love being a missionary and refuse to admit any
other way or think any other way. This past year and some months have
been worth every tear, smile, heartache and pain I never want it to ever end it
is just too good. I love you all and hope you have a great and safe week
and till next week.
Love Sister Browning
