He knows my needs!

Heavenly Father...  are you really there?

And do you hear and answer every child's prayer?

On June 5th, I had an appointment with President Jones so that he could release me from my

Family Search Mission.   After talking to me about my mission and telling me that I was released, he asked me, "So, what did you do this week?"  I thought this was a funny question and scrambled to think of something "significant" that I had done.   I commented to him that I had gone to Colonia Juarez to have my sister-in-law, Virginia, teach me how to Index.   When I said this, he got a funny grin on his face.  I told him that I thought I would try Indexing and see if I could make good use of my time that way.   Then President Jones proceeded to call me to be the "Stake Indexing Director."    Its interesting how inspiration works, sometimes, isn't it?  I was feeling an interest in and a desire to do this work even before I got called.

I had been pleading with Heavenly Father lately to help me to find something "meaningful" to do with my time.  I repeatedly told Him, "just tell me what to do and I'll do it!"  I just figured that He wasn't going to answer my prayer and I was just gonna have to figure it out on my own!  And then.... VOILA!

I am the Stake Indexing Director!  I have spent the last couple of weeks trying to learn more about Indexing and practicing too!  Because of my Family Search Mission experience I knew exactly where to find help with my new calling.  I called Salt Lake and they set up a one on one training session for me via phone and Internet!  It was so awesome!  I think this new calling is one that I  NEEDED

and one that I am really going to enjoy!

I am thankful to Heavenly Father for listening AND

answering my prayer!
