So Sunday I get my papers.

This is a big step for me. Some of you may know this but some may not. I have Longed to serve a mission for a really long time and now its that time. I have started to make appointments with docs.  and it really been cool because not matter how long I've wanted to go i have never felt the feelings that I do now. I'm Amazed by the Power of the Lord. I know that the road ahead is going to be a long one but i know that its the right one. I found the song by Kenneth Cope and i feel that is sums up how I am feeling right now. I'm Amazed. I was asked why i felt serving a mission was right for me. I could never find the words to sum up why i knew this is what i need to be doing in my life but this song is like my own word and thoughts if i could put them all together.

I Will Not Stand Still by Kenneth Cope

I've never been the kind to testify
I don't have the words his truth deserves
But it's a simple thing he asks
A worthy heart and willing hands
He says if I'll make the choice
He'll help me find my voice

He calls me to serve and I cannot fail him
The one who has given me all that I have
I place my trust in Him alone 
He knows the yearnings of my soul 
Because He believes in me
I will go willingly

How can I keep this gift to my self
When I can lift somebody else
I am (I'll be) a witness of his miracles and his mercy
I put my future in his hands
Knowing he's made me all I am
(When) I put my faith in Him the (and) truth begins to speak 
His power is real it moves me until I will not be still

Lifting the hands that hang down in sorrow
Strengthening knees that bend in despair
Reaching the hopeless heart who do not know his love 
Seeking their lives to change
I know I'll never be the same 

His power is real
I trust in his will 
I will not be still
