Relief Society

I really should be getting myself organized right now but I definitely need a creative outlet at the moment. I just want to start off by giving props to all the Relief Society Presidents out there. I knew it was a lot of work but I don't think I really understood until I got called as one. I thought I was a fairly organized person before, but now it is a mess. I have never felt so overwhelmed by church responsibilities before. With that said though, I have never felt so much support and felt so much love for the other Relief Society sisters before. This calling has truly opened my eyes. Even though I am extremely stressed (definitely my own doing) I have always felt like it was going to be OK. I have sisters come up to me on a regular basis saying how I'm doing a great job and they are so happy to have me. I feel like they may just be trying to be nice because they can tell I am losing my mind, but at this point, I don't really care. I am so grateful for such a wonderful organization, Relief Society. I have been blessed in ways that I couldn't imagine. I am also learned so much, and not just about my calling. I now have a great appreciation and admiration for the Priesthood holders in my ward. They are truly wonderful. The men that I work alongside are incredible. I truly don't know what I would do without them. They are all so busy with their own lives but yet still fulfill their callings the best they can - I am sure they do way more than I do.

In short, I am very grateful for the calling that I have, for the opportunity I have to serve my fellow sisters and to work and serve with men who are called of God. May we always remember, Charity Never Faileth.
