Hopefully my call will be arriving this week. Hoping, hoping, hoping...
Patience is a virtue.
My bishop's being really nice and is trying to keep me updated on the status.
My mailman probably appreciates it, too.
I don't know what I am throwing myself into.
I will be in a different place, with no family, no friends, and maybe no understanding of the language or normal food.
If you were to ask a random person on the street, they would think I was crazy to do this...
But I know why I am doing this.
It is rather simple.
I love Heavenly Father.
I love Jesus.
I am happy.
I want to share the happiness I've found in the gospel with others.
I want a happier world.
Yes...this is why I want to be a missionary.
I have those tingling feelings inside right now, telling me this is good.
[phew.]
Heavenly Father knows who I am.
And He knows what I can handle.

You're definitely doing the right thing. I'll never get tired of saying how proud I am of you for making this choice, and it makes me so happy and is such a reinforcement to my own testimony to see what a positive attitude you have, and how much you want to go serve and why. :)
Hang in there!! It feels like forever but your Big White Envelope will be here soon!!
Yay Rebecca! You're so awesome and you're going to be an incredible missionary :) I can't wait for your call!!!!!
