It's been a busy week and a half.
I've accepted the call to be the Primary President in our ward.
There have been non-stop emails.
Phone calls back and forth and back and forth.
Several meetings that have lasted several hours each.
The to-do list is still long and I'm slowly making my way through it.
But, last night after my children were in bed and my husband was quietly relaxing, I took a few moments to think about this awesome responsibility and the privilege I've been given to work with these precious souls.
3 Nephi 17: 19-23
"...And it came to pass that Jesus spake unto them, and bade them arise. And they arose from the earth, and he said unto them: Blessed are ye because of your faith. And and now behold, my joy is full. And when he had said these words, he wept, and the multitude bare record of it, and he took their little children, one by one, and blessed them, and prayed unto the Father for them. And when he had done this he wept again; And he spake unto the multitude, and said unto them: Behold your little ones."
Our Savior took these children one by one to bless them. By His example the Savior taught us the tender care we should give to each one of his children.
What a special time this will be for me to work with these chosen spirits.
It is truly a blessing.
