Let's keep going!

By Mari (16) Tabasco, Mexico.

Here’s a testimony at how the Lord can use any situation to really make you trust in Him and see the good at what might’ve been a terrible day out witnessing!

We had decided to go out to one of the little towns close by, it went well (that in itself was quite a miracle as the town was completely deserted and we had gotten there at an hour where the few shops that could’ve been open had already closed for the day). So we walked back to the place where we were to meet up with the rest of the team, just then we again noticed a lawyer’s office, we had already seen the place before but it looked closed to us so we kept on thinking we could return to it later. “It wouldn’t make any difference anyway,” we added to our thought and with that reluctantly crossed the street to the office and tapped on the door.

It looked like no one was there so we were about to turn to go back when this middle aged guy comes out and asks us what we wanted, he sort of took us by surprise, as it really looked like there was no one, it was all dark except for a little light that was there to sort of keep anybody with others intentions out, he sensed our surprise and told us that he was working extra hours but that the office was closed.

We, regaining our composure, told him of our missionary work, etc, he then noticed our Conectate shirts and asked us what it was, we immediately told him of the mag and how he could subscribe to it, we also told him how he’d be helping us to go to a camp we’d be having in October, he wasn’t really enthusiastic about it at first as we weren’t really going to leave him any proof but he softened up when we told him that what most mattered to us was that he got these mags as they were really going to help him in his everyday life and was guaranteed to see the positive effects in himslef and those around him. We also told him he would be refunded if he didn’t like it, convinced with that he subscribed!

We stayed talking to him for quite a while and he turned out to be a very nice guy and asked us if we had a lawyer already, not waiting for a reply, he added he could help us if we had any legal problems. He then told us that, to help us out, he wanted to get a group of his lawyer friends to subscribe to the Conectate mag! This was such a miracle for us and solid proof that the keys, always will, keep going a step before you! TTL!
