I want to tell you about what I consider a miracle that happened yesterday when we were singing at the hospital. Most of the time the patients cry when we sing to them and it is just such a tender experience and it makes us so happy to be able to brighten their days. As you probably have observed Romanians are soo cool they just always bless you with health, every good thing "toate cele bune" etc...and sometimes they even tell me that God will bless with with a handsome husband. Well I will have to see about that...ha ha. It is sooo funny the things they say. I love it. Well anyway, yesterday a patient said the nicest thing to us ever. After she wished us all health and happiness she said and "God bless your Parents they must be such great people to have such amazing children." She then said I bet they are sooo proud of you all and what you all are doing. And she said you can just see it on your faces that you are true "adevarati" and that you are clean and really believe these things. It was a really cool experience. The spirit was really there when we sang "I Believe in Christ."
This experience made me reflect on the fact so many people are missing that light in their countenance and we often don't think of ourselves as having that light (well at least I don't really think about that, I definitely should). One of my favorite parts of Preach my Gospel is on page one when it says that the Gospel will help others deepest desires to come true. It is sooo true. We all want to be happy in our lives, have happy families, and to return to our Heavenly Father, and this is all possible through His Son's Atonement and His restored Gospel. I am soo grateful for the Lord and for my opportunity to serve Him here and His people here in Romania.
