Being UNITED

We had exchanges last week, which were amazing. We tried to focus on one chapeter of Preach My Gospel, "Teach with your compainon in unity"  We then focused on passing the lesson back and forth more often in the lesson.  Can I just say the result was magical!

The family we taught has been less active for a long time and has been through many sets of missionaries.  So...... our lesson was about the baptismal covenant. We just taught like normal (meaning the information) and then I was prompted to ask their thoughts. To which they said they felt like they were being corrected. At this point we hadn't really done much in way of invitations or suggestions things they should be dong so it opened up a great window to talk about eh Holy Ghost and how he is the one who truly lets us know what we need to be dong and that our messages don't come from us. It comes from Heavenly Father!

Unfortunately they still didn't come to church, which is okay, everyone has their agency. But this was one lesson I knew the spirit was guiding and teaching both the learner and teacher!This kind of teaching akes faith, patience, and trust in both your companion and Heavenly Father. But the results are magical! This doesnt just apply to teaching as a missionary but in helping famioy members make good decisions or in our own personal relationships.

The Key.....BEING UNITED!

So lets be more united. As a family, as husbands and wives (where applicable) as church leaders, and as individuals with our Father in Heaven. It can be tricky but it is possible.
