I am 21. I have recently graduated from Florida State University with a Bachelor of Science in Economics and Bachelor of Arts in International Affairs. My heart breaks for those experiencing poverty. While in college, I worked for the Tallahassee Homeless Shelter and I eventually plan on working for the United States government to negotiate foreign trade policies that will reduce the current barriers to international economic development.
Upon graduation, I quickly realized that life is uncontrollable. I have no idea what my future holds, but thankfully God has already orchestrated a perfect plan for my life. As I enter into the “real-world”, I have had to be open and receptive to God’s calling. By relying greatly on God, I have decided to spend a few months as a missionary before I attend graduate school.
As I was preparing myself to enter the workforce, I prayed heavily for God to give me the guidance on what steps I should take next. God quickly revealed to me that my future plans were driven by success; I was living a life for myself and not for Him. Instead, God showed through scripture, circumstances, and prayer that I would become a missionary for an extended amount of time.
In all honesty, I was hesitant at first. I had never before imagined doing missions work. I didn’t know which organization to choose or where to go. The only thing I knew for sure was the verses God had been speaking through to me. I tried to ignore God’s pleas for a couple of days; however, the next Sunday, my church did not have a regular sermon. Instead, a missionary from Uganda, Isaac Wooten, shared his story. To my astonishment, Isaac read every single verse God had shown to me. I could no longer turn a blind eye. I knew without a doubt that God’s plan for me was missionary work. Jesus, who knew no sin, left heaven to come to Earth and become sin so that I may be clothed in righteousness. If He could be crucified for me, then I can obey His call for me to do missionary work.
