By nature I seek to fit in; to conform to this world. I grew up loving what the world loves. I called earth my home. Needs and wants became skewed as luxuries became “needs”. The thought of unreached people groups in tribes wasn’t much of a thought.
I always found purpose in school and work, but what if I didn’t have to try and seek out purpose. What if I was living a life in accordance to what God created me for. Purpose can be found in anything, but when walking in the fullness I’ve been created for, this pursuit for purpose will be no more.
Sitting on the white tile counter tops of the Zuniga family mission house, God revealed to me what I’ve truly been created for. For three years I pondered the thought of what life had in store, but for the last two months I haven’t given my future any thought. I recognized that too often I was so focused on the unrevealed will of God that I was completely ignoring God’s current revealed will. No longer desiring to conform to this world, instead conforming to the image of Jesus, God showed his predestined calling on my life.
While hearing Patty Sues testimony, the founder of casa de fay orphanage, I was overcome with joy and emotion. Patty Sue never expected to be starting up an orphanage, but now today she can confidently say that she is doing exactly what God has created her for. God used these words “created for” to tell me He’s created me to reach the unreached. In this time God was speaking to me a feeling of peace I’ve never experienced fell over me.
