So this week we learned how important it is to follow the promptings of the spirit. We were walking home late Tuesday and when I say late at like 8 and we started walking and our area is straight forest without lights just dirt trails and after 7 there is no one in the streets because it is dark. But we have no choice but to walk home about 45 minutes from the closest members. So after dinner we started walking. I had a feeling that we shouldn't walk home but we had no other option so we kept walking. I thought that it was just fear but really I don't get scared walking at night here now that I have done it so often. But then stronger I had this feeling we shouldn't walk in the dark and this time it was different than fear, it was a feeling that we really shouldn't be walking. So we called a few members to see if they could help us but they couldn't help us so we kept walking. AGAIN I felt we shouldn't walk in the dark and it was stronger this time. Well about that time a man passed us really slow and stopped in front of us and then walked a little more ahead of us and then hid behind a tree waiting for us to pass well I didn't really pay attention to him but I knew that it was just getting later and later and darker and that we needed to get home so we started walking again when we walked and got a little closer we saw the same man there behind the tree in the middle of the forest in the dark. I grabbed Hermana Aguilars hand and pulled her and we started running the opposite direction and Heavenly Father truly answers our prayers because after running about 5 minutes passed a mototaxi and there are never mototaxis he wasnt even working he was just riding around in his mototaxi late at night but he passed and took us close to our house. Heavenly Father truly answers prayers and through the Holy Ghost he leads and guides us and keeps us from danger. I know that Heavenly Father protects His missionaries. We have been working really hard here in Cerro but our investigators are disappearing but I know that we are helping here. I am way stronger than I thought I was. This week I have felt a million times better health wise and I am so excited for Saturday when President Nelson is going to come and speak to us. It will really be such an amazing experience to hear and Apostleof the Lord speaking directly to us. I am so happy here despite all the really crappy things that happen I am still happy. Really I dont know why. Be careful dont walk at night.
