truth is, i'm not sure I've ever been as sure of myself and what i'm doing than I am right now in my life. I have decided to serve a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and my papers are officially submitted as of last week. it's amazing to me how the Lord takes care of us. The day I received my patracharial blessing was the day I knew a mission was what was in my very near future. It was a hard day and I made some big decisions. But ever since I have decided what i'm going to do, the Lord has never left me. I've never been happier than I am right now and I can already see blessings left and right from my decision to serve. The support I've received is unreal and the good feeling that's been with me since I've submitted my papers is completely undeniable. life is just too good and I always want to remember how I feel about this right now because i'm under no delusions that this is going to be easy. I do know that it's going to be possible and there's no better place for me to be.
that little announcement aside, this last weekend has been the BEST. tonight I went to a Christmas party with the whole crew from highschool. a lot of us have gone our separate ways and we're all doing different things with our lives and I haven't talked to some of these girls since graduation and saying it was good to see them and laugh with them about old times is the understatement of the year.
this is after a couple girls had to head out, but you get the gist of it. such a good night with my favorites (:
I guess the point of this whole thing is that I know that what i'm doing right now is exactly what i'm supposed to be doing. i'm absolutely scared to death because I hate not knowing where i'll be serving and thinking about being away from my family makes me teary just thinking about, but all that aside I know. there is nothing better for me and I can't wait to serve the Lord for a year and a half where he needs me. basically I just love everything and it's never been so obvious how blessed I am :')
