So this last week was completely crazy. I feel like there are so many opportunities that are coming my way and I simply cannot do all of them. They all seemed amazing and I wanted to take them ALL! I know... I'm kind of greedy. Haha
Anyway, so to start off, I randomly came upon a position to be the Vice President for AAF (American Advertising Federation) on BYU-Idaho's campus. It's a huge nation wide federation that ALL of the big companies are apart of. There is nothing better than this to go on a resumé. Next, I applied for an opportunity to take photos at various events on campus AND I get credit to do it while building my portfolio! It was perfect.
Then there is a new ward and calling and lots of reading for my classes and trying to meet people and finding time to go to the temple and visiting teaching and service and keeping in contact with people from my mission and a million other great things that I want to do.
I was feeling a little stressed about how to do everthing so I was parking to know what to focus on and how to know what to do and what is most important because certain things are easy to prioritize but other things, I just wasn't sure what should be more important.
Katie and I did baptisms on Saturday and it was nice going back down to the baptismal font. There was a new convert there with her apartment and they were all doing family names for another lady who had about 30 names to do. I just felt the spirit so strong as I watched all of the baptisms. The temple president talked about how if all of the temples operated at the same capacity as the Rexburg temple, it would take over 1,000 years to complete all of the names we have to do. That's a lot of work to do. He just mentioned how important it was to come to the temple.
I didn't get any big impressions, I just got this little feeling that said, "Trust Me!" It really impacted me that the Lord guides me so much in little ways and I need to not worry. I need to do my best every day and trust him. I can't do everthing, but what I do end up doing, trust in Him that it is enough.
I am so grateful for the temple and the blessings it brings to our lives!
