New Calling

Today was a great Sunday. Last night I got a call asking to meet with Brother Harris who is actually my brother in law that we live with. I had to go all the way to the church to meet with him which is kind of funny. I thought I was going to be called into nursery because they have asked me to sub a couple times in there while they waited for someone to be called to the position. I also didn't think I was going to be released form scouts because nursery wouldn't interfere with that calling. To my surprise that wasn't the call I got at all. I have been called to be the Personal Progress specialist in the young womens and I am so excited for it. I am being released as the bear den leader which has been a good experience but I don't mind being released ha. Scouts is great but I've been in it a year and still don't feel like I know what's going on and what awards and such the boys can receive.

This is personal to share but I want to express my feelings of the day and my blog is my journal so read if you want but this is mostly for me to remember:).

After Todd told me what I was being called to he told me that the Bishop had said this was his strongest impression that he had received to put someone in a calling. He said that he received the revelation that I was going to change girl's lives and needed to be in there. Lately I have been feeling...unwelcomed I guess in my ward which I know is partly my own fault for not including myself more. My ward really is wonderful I think I was just having a pitty party because we don't have people we have become close friends with. After he told me this I just felt like I had a bigger purpose in this ward. I'm so grateful to my Heavenly Father who knows me and is aware of how I am feeling. He is guiding my life everyday even when I don't ask him for something specifically.

I'm excited about the new calling but at the same time I'm nervous. I'm supposed to receive my own revelation to know which classes I attend because with my calling I'm able to float between classes and be where I'm impressed to be. I hope I can do a good job and actually can touch the lives of the girls in my ward. I know that this calling will probably benefit me more than them and I'm grateful for the blessing it will be in my life.

The Church is true:)
