The best news first: I got ordained today! I'm now an Elder in the Melchizedek priesthood for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Wooot. I'm so thankful for all the blessings the Lord has given me, and this is definitely one of them. Two other guys also got ordained before me, and Bishop Richards talked a little about each one of us before each ordination. For me he said that he had gotten ahold of an email conversation between Dan, Sean and I talking to each other, and he talked about the incredible friendship we have. I'd never really thought about our actual friendship before... just the actual guys, Dan and Sean and how much I miss them, haha. Anyway he talked about the strength of our friendship and the strength we give each other, and how much we really do love each other. I'd always thought of it as normal, because it always has been normal, but really, it's extraordinary. There's nothing we wouldn't do for each other, and I really do love those guys with all of my heart. They're my best friends and I know we'll be bffs forever.
Better news: Ok I didn't really have better news, I just wanted to have a witty blog title
referencing something else.Good news: My Stake president interview got postponed a few weeks. The secretary must have somehow got the dates mixed up, and set the appointment a week late, and now he and the Stake president is gone for the next two or three weeks. I don't blame him or anything, and I'm not mad, so don't take the previous information as blame, I'm just letting you all know what happened.
So I'm sure you're all thinking "whaaaaaat why does Cody think this is good news, why doesn't he want to leave already, blah blah blah." I assure you, this is not the case. I want to leave ASAP, but I know that the Lord is in complete control, and I trust Him completely. So no worries :)
