We're working as hard as we can with Lydia, who really does have desires to follow the Saviour. It's difficult to meet regularly with her, as she is going to the doctor a lot to see how her foot and amputated toe are doing. Diabetes is rough, friends! Don't let it escalate to where you have to amputate body parts, because it's feo. But she's a champ, and we finally got to give her the Book of Mormon in CDs, which got her really excited. Her eyes are very bad as well because of the diabetes, so she hasn't been able to read. She sat and listened to the entire beginning of the Book of Mormon with us, from the title page to the end of Joseph Smith's testimony with out saying a word a side from a few questions of understanding. She loved it, and the Spirit was strong. The words of the prophets in the Book of Mormon have power, and whether you read it in your mind or listen to another reading, the Spirit takes the words to your heart. Then it's our job to let them in!
My time is coming to a close, but I know that God loves all of his children no matter what their situation or way of life. He wants all of them to return to him, and I know that my work here is His, and I know that I'm helping more children come to the fold of our Saviour. I could not be happier doing so, and I love every day I have here.
