Drew mail 8-18-2019: "The Hand of God"

 This week has been a good one! I hope you are all doing well and know that I love you so much! Today has been pretty crazy as it is my last "P-day" (preparation day) in the MTC, but I wanted to write about how much I have learned this week. Our district decided that this week we would work on the attribute of hope and working on seeing the hand of God in our lives.
This has been a really cool experience and I’ve seen lots of blessings from it. So one specific experience was with Elizabeth, our last TRC amiga. We were going to teach her on Tuesday, and we were super excited because we were going to invite her to be baptized, but then it turned out that we taught a different person instead. After the lesson we were leaving and walking down the hallway and we ran into Elizabeth! We talked with her for a minute and found out she was super nervous about an English test she was going to have later that day. As we were talking I had the thought, we need to pray with her. So I asked if we could and she was so happy and said yes! It was just super amazing to be able to see Heavenly Father direct us so that we could run into her and then pray with her. I know the hand of God is real.
It isn’t always something big like that however, but it can be seen everyday. The hand of God is shown when someone says a kind word, or smiles at you, or whenever anything good happens. I have found this week that when we pray for hope and try to see the hand of God it’ll happen! I promise. Try it and you can see for yourself. You all are amazing! Keep trying your best and I know Jesus Christ will make up the difference. I love you all!
