My testimony of the principle of fasting has just been strengthened so much. Yesterday and the day before there were people in the ward (congregation) fasting for the missionary work in this area (not fasting two days straight...different people different days). And both days we saw miracles!
Miracle of day before yesterday: We were able to have a lesson with a specific family for the first time in a couple months. We've been worrying about and praying for this family for a long time. It went so well! They seem to be on the path of progression again. It may not sound very big... but it was a miracle to us.
Miracles of yesterday: There is a lady that I've never even met, but that the missionaries in this area have been trying to work with for the last 6 months. But she hasn't been intersted. And yesterday, she texted us! She told us that she'd moved, where she'd moved to, and that she wanted us to come visit! [We were astonished!]
Also, there was a lesson we were going to have yesterday...really weird situation. Can't even really describe it here. But my companions and I had been praying together and individually a lot to know what to do about this, and to have help during it, or even if we should continue to go back. I'd also been praying to be able to have just a little glimpse as to the way that Heavenly Father feels about this lady we were going to go see. The only two other times we'd been there things had not gone well. -- The lesson went super well, considering the strangeness of the situation. And afterward, we talked with our ward mission leader, who'd accompanied us. I began to get better insight as to how Heavenly Father sees that lady. It was amazing to see just how Heavenly Father answered these prayers, and sent miracles, I believe a greater measure because of the fasting and prayers of others.
