Hello!
So we had a very special experience on the weekend. After their baptisms we confirmed a family on Sunday, and I've never seen a confirmation like the one of the mother. As we laid our hands upon her head, she just started to cry. As the prayer started, she started sob, loudly. When I say loudly, I mean I don't think anyone outside the circle could hear the prayer, even with the microphone. Afterwards, we learned what had happened. She'd just felt the Spirit so much, that it overpowered her. She never felt it that strong before, and couldn't control herself. Ever since, all she'll talk about is how she felt at the confirmation. She always says that while she felt good until her Baptism, and great after her Baptism, it is the confirmation that will always stay in her mind. She is showing such a great example for the rest of us here in the Ward, the appreciation for spiritual things. She was just so open and ready for the Spirit that when it came, it came with full force. The Spirit was so strong in the Sacrament meeting, I don't think there was anyone that wasn't touched. I really hope that I, and everyone else, can be so receptive to the Spirit, that there is no barrier between me (/us) and the Spirit, that we can be carried away by the Spirit like she was.
I love you all,
Anziano Nelson
