So I have not blogged in a little while and thought I should share somethings that have been happening. This last weekend was really nice. I ended up hanging out with Nik's family for most of the weekend. I am so grateful to them for including me in all of there family functions. I know that Nik would be so happy to know that I am still hanging around them and keeping in touch with them. They have truely made me feel welcome and have made me feel loved. What a blessing this has been in my life, especially while Nik has been gone.
On Sunday I had a meeting with Brother Terry in my Young Single Adult Ward. I was really nervous about it thinking that I was going to get a calling in Relief Society because they had just visited me the week before. So I assumed wrong..... He wanted to call me to be a Ward Missionary! Me a Ward Missionary????! I never thought that I would get a calling like that. I have not served a mission and do I really know how to do missionary work? I try and teach by example, but have never really been the type to just bare my testimony whenever. So even though I was way nervous for this calling I know that Heavenly Father wants me to do His work! I accepted and we had a meeting this last Sunday. Scott the guy who is over the Ward Missionaries told us how excited he is about this calling and that he knows that we all have been called for a reason. My head was spinning at this point and wondering what Heavenly Father wants me to learn from all of this. Then Scott began with his Testimony and said that he had been given the ward directory and knew none of us. He had prayed and prayed and kept coming back to are names and that he knew we were suppose to be called to this great work. I felt the spirit so strong and could not deny it! I was like, ok Heavenly Father I will do as you ask and not question you! I think that this will be a great thing for me and that it will help me to have some experiences that I can share with Nik as well. I just wrote Nik and told him about it..... I am sure it will put a huge smile on his face :).
This week I also got a letter from Nik. He is doing so well and learning so much. It is amazing to see how much a person can change in such a short amount of time. It is so cool to see how close he is to the spirit and see how much his testimony has grown! He is such an amazing person and I am so lucky to have him want to be apart of my life! The nice thing to was that he said he missed me! Sometimes I wonder if he misses me, so it is nice to hear once and awhile that he misses me as much as I miss him. We are both being so blessed while he is gone serving his Mission. The Lord truely knows what is best for us and will help guide all of us. It may not be easy at times, but the load may be lightened if we put our Faith in our Savior Jesus Christ! I am so grateful to have this knowledge and am so happy to know that I can turn to Him in my time of need! Another week down and a lot more to go! :)
