Merry Christmas!

Dear Precious Gems,

This week has been a week of stretching and growth and such wonderful blessings we have we received this week.

A small cool miracle that happened this week with a new investigator. As a little background story, there is a big TV in the big city here in Tirana that shows a small segment of A Savior Is Born on the screen. At the end has our number. Well, this week a girl saw it and contacted the number. So through the process of figuring out where she lived we ended up receiving her number and being able to get in contact with her. She said she wanted to get an appointment right away with us. We ended up finding the time-window to fitting her in and meeting with her at the church.

I testify that the Lord is so grateful when we give the time and attention to him through prayer. The moment that we begin our prayers with sincere and humble hearts, we can feel his presence right at the very beginning  of them. I know that I felt him with me as I commune with him everyday. I am so blessed to have the relationship that I do with my father in heaven and I know that it is only the beginning to a beautiful and eternal friendship.

I know that with the lesson with this woman was the first time she truly knew how to pray with her father in heaven. And that she knew of how much she mattered to him.

I testify that I know that we EACH MATTER TO HIM!!!

I know that He gave his son for us. I know that he is very mindful of us and all that we have to face every single day. The Lord is in all the details of our lives. I know that He LIVES!

I know that each of you matter to him. Like it says in Abraham 3:22-23:

22 Now the Lord had shown unto me, Abraham, the intelligences that were organized before the world was; and among all these there were many of the noble and great ones;

 23 And God saw these souls that they were good, and he stood in the midst of them, and he said: These I will make my rulers; for he stood among those that were spirits, and he saw that they were good; and he said unto me: Abraham, thou art one of them; thou wast chosen before thou wast born.

I know that our names can be in the place of Abraham and have it still be of the same value.

BECAUSE YOU MATTER!!!

YOU MATTER TO HIM!

YOU ARE HIS CHILD!!

AND HE HAS SENT YOU HERE AT THIS TIME FOR THOSE THAT YOU COME IN CONTACT WITH. "BECAUSE YOU WERE CHOSEN BEFORE THOU WAST BORN."

I am so grateful for all of your examples and all that you do everyday. I can testify and say that it is of great value. KEEP GOING!

Love, Motra Bezas
