Goodbye!

Well, this was my last lesson. I am being released tomorrow. I am one lesson away from where I started in this calling. I have been in this calling for 4 years! I was technically put in this calling in October but I had substituted this class for quite a while before that. I will miss this calling, I never thought I would, but I have learned a lot! I've grown more than I can even tell you. I've learned to feel and recognize the spirit's whisperings as I have prayed for ideas and inspiration. I have learned to pull things from the scriptures that are personal and have personal significance. I've tried to put into practice the things I have learned and I see that my life is becoming better. Not better as in we are monetarily rich but I feel more patient, more kind, I feel closer to the Lord than I ever have been before. I can see and recognize the Lord's hand in my life so easily now; not just as I look back but as I live in the present. I have a testimony of the gospel and the scriptures. I know that they were written just for me! I know that the Lord's timing amazes me. I always seem to have a lesson at the exact time I am dealing with that problem. I have a testimony that we are all connected. I have had many experiences that happen to me just in time to share them with my class and sure enough someone else needed the same answer I did to help them get through their struggles. It is all truly inspiring and amazing how the Lord can take simple, slightly dysfunctional people an use them as an instrument for good.

I don't know if i will continue this blog, I created it mainly to share my lessons with my mom. I did use it for personal updates as well but I'm not sure I like publishing it for all to read. So if I don't write again, you'll know why. One of the reasons I am being released is because I am going into the nursing program and need all my gospel doctrine prep time to study that stuff. I am going from teacher to piano player in primary till September then I will move to primary Choister. I've had that calling before and enjoyed it and I love the kids! It will be great again. Good Luck to all who read this blog and got anything out of it except for being driven nuts from all the grammatical errors. Thanks for any and all comments that were unsolicited and way too kind. Good Luck and may the Lord bless you as much in your lives as He has blessed me! In the name of Jesus Christ amen.
