Aux. Training!

Last night was our auxiliary training at church. Before I had this calling I used to look forward to this night. It was a time to feel uplifted, motivated, and refreshed in my calling. (If you don't know what I am talking about-in our church we don't have a paid ministry. We all have callings-assignments where every member has a job that we volunteer to do. We feel that a calling is from God and we are put in certain positions (callings) to learn things and share with others ) 7 months ago I was called to be the stake primary president. (more explaining-primary is the organization over the children. A congregation is a ward and several wards together make up a stake) Ok so back to the calling. One of my duties is to be in charge of a meeting that is held twice a year called auxiliary training meeting. This is where all the primary presidencies come together and be trained! ( Yeah a joke right be trained by me!!! ) This has really been a challenge for me. I liked to just go for these meetings not teach them. This calling has made me have to step out of my comfort zone a lot and really have to rely on the Lord for strength. Last night we joined together for a training. There was the sweetest spirit there. I felt such a peace and grateful for this opportunity to serve. I have learned so much already from the amazing people that work in primary. They may not be learning a thing from me but I am learning so much from them. When I was driving there I was dreading it. I had an hour drive alone to really take some time to think and try to get a better attitude-but as I drove home I felt so much more uplifted. I was so rejuvenated to be a better mom and wife. It works...service takes your worries away and lets you focus on a better more eternal things.
