The blessings I feel right now are through the roof. Tonight I finished my mission papers. The stake president has sent them on their way to President Monson and the mission department.
After some misunderstanding with the time of my interview and such I finally finished that last step.
I feel so at peace. I'm so anxious to get my call and find out where I'm going but just knowing that it is all out my hands at this point feels so good.
That is until I realized how really it hasn't ever been in my hands.
It was never my plan to serve a mission.
It was all in His timing to have things take a little longer then planned.
It was Him that gave me the added patience as I waited for those final interviews.
And now it is all in His hands to send me where I need to go.
After my interview, I have never felt so blessed. I just marveled at everything as I walked home and tried to take in the fact that I'm so close to being a full time missionary. That in a few weeks I will know where I will be devoting 18 months of my time. I held in my tears of happiness until I got home.
Sweet Lizzie only said, "dude you're a missionary now." And I just couldn't help but let it out. Guys, this is so real. It is more real then it has been so far. What a blessing.
Guys this church is true. Really. I can't wait to teach people somewhere the truth of it. What a blessing it really is.
Here's to another few weeks of waiting.
