Yesterday, I was nervous and slightly distracted all day, wondering if the post would arrive and, more importantly, if the letter from ministries council had arrived.
It was there, behind the door, when Spot and I got home. It was a really small envelope. Not good, not good at all. Results like this should come in large(ish) envelopes.
I had decided during the day I would open the letter immediately - why let the worry go on for longer than necessary. I'd not been accepted, but needed to open the letter to read the report from the conference. To see were I'd gone wrong and begin reflection of where I was go for God next.
Quickly, it was opened. I began reading. It was good news! The assessors has decided to accept me as a candidate in training for full-time ministry. I was stunned, shocked, amazed. I'd done it!
Spot was really chuffed too, as are all the friends and family I have told since then.
God has guided me here and will guide me where I go next. But still. Minister? Me? Wow.
Great news! Really pleased for you.

okay, not, but you'll be doing it with other 'candidate companions' on the way who will hopefully become an excellent peer support group... and end up as friends.
Congrats :)
Congratulations and blessings on your journey
