A new year and a near calling

Yesterday, I got a new calling in church. I was released as the second Counselor in Relief Society and sustained as the Relief Society President. Oh my! I have never served as a President in any of the auxiliaries before so I have no expectations as to how much this calling will affect my life . . . yet. In a way, being blissfully unaware can be a good thing for now.

I am truly humbled by the calling and I know Heavenly Father will help me. The experiences I have had with the Spirit so far have been amazing and I am grateful for them. I pray that I can become what the sisters and the Lord need me to me to be.

You are going to beautify and love and LEARN so much. Some good and some not really all that good at all. But it will stick in your memory as a strength builder. Hurrah for Israel!
