Lessons learned by my greenie and Power of the Holy Ghost

So this past week was a good week. It seemed a little slow, but we actually did an ok amount of teaching. But ya Monday went well and that evening we had dinner with a family we always have dinner with the Maresh Family it is just an older couple, but they are awesome and he is Donny Mclaferty's home teacher so Donny and Brother Mclaferty came to dinner with us to their house and it was super good Bro Maresh talked to Donny about wearing a white shirt and tie and staying at church and how everyone loves him. It was great it was awesome I think he really helped Donny out. I have been worried about him and he has been on my mind a lot lately he is always in my prayers. I don't want to see him go a little inactive. 

But ya highlights from the rest of the week! so we also had a really good lesson with the Homg family that we found she is so ready it is unbelievable it is awesome but she lives in a different ward and so we have to pass her off to the right sisters to teach her, but it has still been an awesome experience finding their family. But ya the rest of the week On Wednesday it poured again but luckily for us we got to the library right as it started to pour and so we didn't get soaked this week like last week which is good because we had to get a new phone because of last weeks but ya it was raining good. So in our area we tract at least an hour everyday and I like to make sure we aren't just doing things routine but that they are always inspired so the way that we pick where we tract is as follows. So we look what part of town we are going to be in and mark off an area and then we pray and ask the lord to lead us to where the elect in that area are and then separately we choose 3 streets each that we feel would be good and every time there is always at least one street the same and me and my comp did this for the first time and it worked as it always does and I have found that when it doesn't work it just means we are looking in the wrong part of town so we choose a different area but we did that and it was just a great spiritual experience and on the street we were both lead by god we taught a lesson on it this is just one of the many ways I saw the power of the holy ghost in my life this week and another one was on Thursday we had the pass off lesson of our date set Athena to the sisters who cover the ward she lives in and I was a little  worried because Athena's mom wanted to go back to church with her sister who lives in our ward, but I felt that we could push her a little harder about it that is what the spirit told me at least and we had the lesson and it was a super good lesson Athena didn't make it, but that was ok it worked out and she was ok with going to the right ward so that was great it was a great lesson another instance of why we need to always listen to the spirit! 

Now for the story about my subject line "lessons leaned by my greenie" so ya on Saturday we had a pretty open day and we filled it with stuff to do and then the whole day we just were getting in nowhere we were outside all day except for when we ate lunch and dinner. We had along hard day of work stopbys, tracting, biking around, and talking to people, but just no luck  till 8 oclock we had an appt come through and then that night Elder Anway told me he learned he needed to be more specific with his prayers because he prayed that we could teach one person thinking in his head at least one person today, but God took it literally and we taught one person all day! So be specific in your prayers! But ya another cool  experience with following the spirit this week was on Saturday we were going around this big apt complex going from building to Building trying to get in the locked doors and we were trying to see this less active we didn't know and Miracle we got in and then he wasn't home and we walked out to this street and I saw an African man sitting on a bench a I felt super strongly we need to talk to him. We knocked  a few more doors and he was still at the bench so I said elder we need to talk to him and we went and we talked to him and it was the less active we were trying to find and ya so we got his new number and ya he said he would come to church the next week so it was great! I really learned a lot this week and got a lot done and because we followed the promptings of the holy ghost it is amazing he will really lead you and guide you though your life if you let him and then you will have a happy life and a successful life it amazing the gift that God has given us with the holy ghost.  so i hope we are all using it to the maximum potential in our lives! I love it ! Well that is all this week hope everyone has a great week!

Love 
Elder Howe
