After what felt like eternity, I received my mission call. There are a ton of emotions flooding my mind and heart but I'm mainly just HAPPY. I feel like the happiest person in the world. I'm FINALLY going. It's been 10 months since the last time I turned my papers in. I had medical issue after medical issue and now I'm finally ready to go. I hope people realize that The Lords way of testing us can and will come in any way shape or form. I was so frustrated when i wasn't getting my call and then I was told I needed to take care of some medical issues first. I was devastated. All I have ever wanted to do is serve a mission and when it was postponed, it was the worst feeling ever. The feelings of inadequacy came and the feelings of being excited left me empty. I didn't know why I wasn't getting out on my mission when I had planned. I was stubborn and unreasonable for months and I finally knelt down and prayed, in humility and had a really good conversation with my Father in heaven. I asked again if a mission was right for me and I received the same answer, yes. I then decided to tell My patient Savior that I loved Him and I knew His timing is perfect so I would wait. I waited 10 months to the day and now my Savior has blessed me with the most amazing mission! I can not wait to go and I know that Canada is ready for me and although I may never feel ready, The Lord will prepare me to be ready to teach people about Him and His gospel. I'm grateful I get the chance to serve! My journey is about to go down a very icy, cold, beautiful, road and I can't wait to see what's waiting for me in Canada!
