In a meeting with the YW leaders tonight, we were joined by a new secretary. We had been without one for some time. When it was finally settled who would be taking on that role, she let the bishopric know that she would be out of town for the next few weeks. The bishopric suggested just keeping her where she was until she returned. however the YW president thought it was better to get her involved as soon as possible, even if she would be gone for the next few weeks.
That feeling to have her involved as soon as she was available was validated in our meeting. We made our introductions and got to know her better and then dove right into the meat of the meeting. As we were discussing a particular topic of concern, many different thoughts and ideas were being put on the table, but nothing seemed to be what it would take to have a united approach to tackling this issue. And then, our new secretary brought up a scripture that connected our problem perfectly to the teachings of Christ.
As soon as she brought it up, we were all in agreement and at peace with how to approach the issue and work with the young women to improve the classroom environment. It was beautiful to see all the dots connect in just the blink of an eye. So, even if she could only be there for the one meeting before leaving on a long vacation, her contribution was of great benefit to all of us. It was important that she joined us and l could see the Lord's hand in arranging the timing so perfectly.
