On your right hand and on your left

Friday: we had an awesome lesson with an investigator at 

Lumpini who brought her sister to come learn, who brought her

boyfriend to come learn! Then we rushed over to the other end

of (what we thought was) our area. As we get into a taxi I look 

over and see a sign saying that we were in a different area. I 

was feeling really frustrated because we had taught this 

investigator a lot, not knowing that we were out of our area... 

anyways we went and taught her and old the sisters of that area

about their new investigator... so mad. As we were heading 

back though, we got out of the taxi that dropped us off at the 

sky train station. Sister Shaw and I walk past these two people. 

I didn't notice, but it was a foreigner man trying to talk to a 

young thai woman. The situation looked uncomfortable and 

Sister Shaw pointed it out as we passed them and went up the 

escalator. I looked back and saw and suggested that we go 

back down. So we go back down and kind of linger around 

(pretend to be making phone calls) but just observing the 

situation. I won't put in all of the details, but basically this man 

was trying to get this lady to go with him somewhere. She 

seemed uncomfortable and both my companion and I felt like 

we should help her get out of the situation. Just as this lady was

about go with this man, we just felt so compelled to just talk to 

her. I just walked up and spoke to her in thai because I knew 

that the man wouldn't understand. I blurted out the first thing 

that came into my head "uh do you know the MSU university?? 

We need to go there." Though she was a little suprised she was

more than happy to tell us how to get there. And then we asked 

her if she knew that man. She said no, and that he just 

approached her as she came down the escalator on the way 

home. We told her to be careful and to not go anywhere with 

him. Then we said that she could go with us to pretend to give 

us directions. She agreed, and then we just quickly walked 

away and went up the escalator. As we were trying to get away, 

this man followed from a distance. Sister Shaw and I walked on 

either side of her and tried to come up with a plan of how we 

could get her home safely and lose the creepy guy. And then 

the thai national anthem went on, and it is super disrespectful to 

walk during the anthem. My heart was pounding so bad and 

Sister Shaw was praying out loud. We tried to go up and down 

a few different set of staris at the sky train station and then we 

got the girl a motor bike taxi and told her to never talk to men 

again. But then the man (from a distance) looked angry and 

kept walking in our direction. Sister Shaw was still praying out 

loud, but we were able to just walk really fast in a different 

direction and run up some escalators, buy our tokens really 

quick, tell the security guard, and then go through security and 

wait for the sky train. We were so scared. Anyways, I don't tell 

you all this story to make you worried, but just to share the 

lesson that I learned about how critical it is to 1. Be in unity with 

your companion and communicate. 2. To act on the promptings 

of the spirit, quickly. If we were have waited any longer what we 

should have said to that girl, it might have been too late.
3. God needed us in that time and place to help her.

I'm out of time, but right now I am completely safe so don't 

worry! But I do know that there are angels on our right hand 

and on our left.
