EXACT Obedience BRINGS Blessings/Miracles!

Hello Family and Friends,
How are you all doing this fine day?  I hope all is going well with you wherever you may be.  Life in eternal spring is moving forward as always.  Although the weather hasn't been to friendly with us this week, life as a missionary is still amazing as always and continues to roll forward.  Not a whole lot happened this week, but lets get on into it.
Monday was a great day to explore the mountains and go on a hike.  We went to a place called "7 Waterfalls"  and it may be the coolest hiking trip I've been on. It was a giant rope course up the mountain to all seven of these waterfalls.  The view was so beautiful.  Loved it!
Tuesday I went on companion exchanges with Elder Morgan where we had such an amazing day!  So in last week's letter I sort of mentioned about our "golden" kid.  Well, his name is Huang Chong Ming and he is the coolest kid in the world.  So we sat down with him a few times this week and shared the Message of the Restoration with him and helped him see what kind of relationship it has with him.  Why the Book of Mormon and prayer are so important in coming to know.  We were also able to share a part of the Plan of Salvation with him.  We were so blessed to run into him and he is truly been a miracle to my companion and I.  While I was in the MTC there was a quote that went around saying, "Almost obedient almost brings blessings.  Exact obedience brings blessings/miracles."  I know that it was because of our obedience that we were blessed with this "miracle man."
Wednesday was spent living on a bus...
Thursday was spent up in GaoXiong were we had a Leadership Training Meeting for all Zone Leaders, District Leaders, and Trainers.  I would really love to go over everything that we went over and practiced, but I'll save it for another day.  It was spent mainly on how we can use the tools to help investigators and members become converted to the gospel as effective as we can. 
The rest of the weekend then surprised us with a downpour of rain.
Well, that's a wrap up of this week.  No matter how "dry" the days may seem, the work of God continues to go on.  I love you all and hope you all have a wonderful week.  Til next time...
Love the One and Only,
