Miracles

My missionaries talk often about miracles. They see the hand of the Lord working among His children such as the following I received in my weekly emails. I fully believe that the greatest miracle we ever see is the changing of a human heart to righteousness.

There was an investigator we met with our ward mission leader 3 weeks ago who had been way interested in our message. When we met back with her she slammed the door and said it was a bad time. That was not the most exciting return appointment for a golden investigator. We continued to call her to no avail. This past Sunday as we were walking we felt that we should knock on a few doors on this street. We found a man who was in need of the gospel. Later we took a member with us to meet with him. The member invited him to come to church and he accepted. As we were doing service at the same apartments where our formerly talked about 'Golden Investigator' lived she was sitting outside. We went over to talk to her. She hung up the phone saying, 'here they are now, the missionaries are here.' Unsure as to what to expect we said hello and she said, ‘you won't believe it’, we asked, ‘what?’ She responded, ‘I am coming to church. You guys are teaching my boyfriend’ This past Sunday they both made it to church.”

There are so many account of things that just “seem to happen,” they cannot be passed off as coincidence. The Lord of the vineyard works right alongside His servants. (Jacob 5:72)
