Opening the Mission Call

Before I opened my call, I just wanted to write out what I think about this whole deal.  I am so excited/anxious/happy/apprehensive and likely everything in between.

I turned my papers in on March 3, 2013.  The call was made March 8, 2013.  It got to my mailbox on March 14, 2013, and I am opening it on March 15, 2013.  The waiting process has fluctuated from moving really fast to painfully slow. 

While in the airport today I listened to a Mormon Tabernacle playlist I have on my phone, and when the song "I Believe IN Christ" came on, I realized how much I love that hymn.  I do believe in Christ, His goodness, His mercy, kindness, service, and compassion for all mankind - and I am so excited to take that belief to wherever and to whomever I am called to serve.

The one thing I hope to get out of my opening my call, is to have that feeling of rightness hit.  That my call will feel perfect, tailored just for me and that I will feel completely excited for wherever I am called to.

Chad and I are both opening our calls tonight, so that's exciting!  We are going to flip a coin...heads I win tails he loses?  Hahaha I wish.  Oh I just want that white envelope to be open.  

I will likely have more to write tomorrow after my call is opened.  I am opening it at 10:00 tonight. Wherever I go will be awesome and  I cannot wait to at long last find out where it is.  

May the next two hours mercifully move quickly.
