I cried during PK´s and the fireworks show in the street & it was everything!!! I didn´t watch the game other than the last 5 minutes, but still it was everything & super emotional. ILYSM Neymar, and you too goal keeper that I don´t know your name!!!
This week we had a leadership meeting with Presidente Leite, and I want to share with yáll one of the stories that he told us. I´m probably forgetting lots of details, but it´s about how the church bought the lot for the Houston Texas Temple.
So there was a guy who worked for the church and he was scouting out lots for the temple to be built, and he found three options that he liked a lot. President Hinckley flew to Texas and he looked at the three lots and he chose the one he liked super easily and told the man to buy the lot. The man who worked for the church called the owner & tried to make an offer, but the owner said no. He called President Hinckley and said that it didn´t work out, but the other two lots are great options, and there was silence on the phone (how scary!! Haha) but President Hinckley asked him if he already prayed specifically to buy the lot, and he said no, but prayed after. The next day he tried to buy the lot again, and the owner said something like “I don´t know what you don´t understand about NO, but I won´t sell you the lot”. He called President Hinckley again and told him what happened, and President Hinckley asked him, “Have you fasted already to buy the Lot?” He hadn´t fasted already, and decided to do so. That night, the owner was talking to a close friend of his, and the close friend asked him why he won´t sell the lot? He told him that his son had a girlfriend who was a member of the church and she wanted to get married in a temple and that is why she ended things with his son. He said that his son´s life would have been so much better if he would have married her! After, the owner opened up his bible and he found a piece of paper that he wrote on a long time ago that said, ”Anything the Lord asks, I will give him.” He decided that he didn´t want to sell his land, but he wanted to give his land. The next day, the church worker went to his office to try one last time to buy the land, and to his surprise the man wanted to give him the land! He called President Hinckley all excited saying, “We got the land for free!!”, and President Hinckley said, no we are going to buy the land!! So he went back, and the agreed on him buying it. This story is so sweet. When we need answers or a specific blessing, we can´t expect it without fasting and praying. I have found this to be SO true these last 10 months. We can believe in miracles and pray for miracles if we are completely sincere and ready to do our part for these things to happen!
Love you all, viu!!!!
