Tonight in Priesthood Meeting Elder Holland, who was the one with the quote on my head page about dreaming dreams and seeing visions, preached on serving missions. He challenged the youth to be prepared and serve missions. He said that we need tens of thousands more missionaries.
Then he also said that we need thousands more couples to serve a mission. As you can imagine, that helped excited me even more about going on a mission. He was cute in how he said we need more missionaries, especially old ones like us.
Elder Holland reiterated that Father knows the intents of the heart and who can, and will serve Him. So I should get hopping and earning that money.
Also, I need to explain that no matter how much I have, or don't have come June, I plan on inviting my kids and grand kids to help support Grandma and grandpa serving a mission. I know that will be a great experience for them all. There is something magical about supporting a missionary. Blessings are abundant and lessons are gleaned by those involved.
I am still waiting until after tomorrow in conference to finally decide where I need to go to earn that dreams I shared with all a few days ago. Thus far, through one day of conference, I feel it is good and a "GO".
