A few weeks ago, I was invited down to the Stake Office building to visit with a member of our Stake Presidency. At the time, I did not know that I would end up meeting with the entire presidency. But when I did…I had the most amazing sense of peacefulness and calmness. It has been an amazing three weeks. I have seen the Lord’s hand in my life so many times but, these past few weeks have been completely different—I have seen it each day. It has been completely amazing. WOW!!!
So, today, when my name was sustained to serve the young women of our stake, my heart filled with a great amount of peacefulness—even more than that of the previous weeks. I do not want this feeling to ever leave. It has been such a great day!!
Of course, I am scared, a little panicked, a little overwhelmed, suffering from a little bit of anxiety…but, the greatest feeling is that of pure peace. I am excited for this new calling. I am excited to serve with those in my presidency and those on our board. It will be a great few years. I know that our focus will be on the sweet young women and amazing leaders of our stake. I am excited for all of the amazing, spiritual, exciting and peaceful experiences that I will be able to enjoy (and now enjoy). I know that it is going to be difficult and that there will be some sadness but, I know that as I study, ponder and pray…our Heavenly Father will continue to lead, direct and guide me. WOW!! What a beautiful day!!
