A New Calling

Today I was sustained as the first councilor in the Young Womens Presidency... CRAZY!!! I am really excited to get to know our Young Women better. We have some fantastic youth in our ward and I'm sure I will learn a lot from them.
It is sort of bittersweet though, this means I will be released from my Stake YSA calling. I am really sad about that but I know that the Lord know what he's doing and I was getting really burned out with that calling. The great thing is that I will be able to prepare the young women in my ward for the next stage in their life because I am still living it and because I have been working in that capacity for so long. The girls seemed really excited also, I got hugs from a few of them and some of the mothers were saying that their daughters were very excited about having me as their leader. That made me feel so much better. I was starting to allow the doubts to sink in, when Brother Thompson set me apart this morning, all those doubts went away and I knew with a surity that this is where I am supposed to be. I am so greatful for the gift of the Holy Ghost that testifies to me constantly of who I am. I can't wait to help the Young Women to understand their roles and who they are also. It took me a long time but I hope that I will be able to help them to understand what it took me years to understand.
Well, I suppose thats all for tonight. I am starting to get really tired and I have to work tomorrow :(
