My squad was asked to blog about how we were called to this mission trip, here is my story…
there are many things in life that i just dont know & there are some things in life i just know- i have absolute confidence that i just understand it.
My calling was it– when the world race came to my acknowledgement i had this confirmation.
ok… so prior to this experiance i had been on 1 missions trip (which was the HIGHLIGHT of my life!) and blowing through the difficult obsticals to make it on that trip was worth it because in my mind & in my heart i knew that this was what God wanted of me, and i had a very safe peaceful feeling that it didnt matter what my obsticals were, i knew that this was what God wanted and thats all that mattered.
ok… so back to this CONFIRMATION … my life had been different since i came back and i prayed to give to God whatever He wanted of my life- but i am the kind of person that i need that ~neon glowing blinking sign that drops from the Heavens infront of my face and then smacks me if i dont get what it says ~
My weekend of bliss, i contacted aim, school, lender,etc. all to figure out my options. I made lists of pros/cons, i prayed, fasted, talked about it, spent time in nature and tried to listen to what God was telling me-
The world race just made sence to me, its like life ‘clicked’ my place in life made sence again and when i told my close family/friends i felt pleased and at peace.
Thinking back– to all my dreams, thoughts of different cultures, people, places, humbling myself, caring for others, hunger & poverty, etc. I know that this is what the Lord wants of me, this is what I was made for- the people of the Lord to show His love through my works, my smile, my love… my calling
God made me the person I am to be a part of his plan, praise Him!
