What am I doing?Have you ever walked into a room and asked yourself, “Why did I come in here?” or “What am I doing here?” Thats a question I asked myself all the time until a few months ago. I never let it sink in.About 2 years ago, all it took for me to ask that question was to look at my life or even think about what I was doing, But I wasn’t doing anything. . . anything productive anyways. I was working at a restaurant just doing what I wanted to do. It felt like I was just taking up space. I needed something to change.It’s awesome how God knows just what we need even before we do. He led like only He can do, and I ended up in Hickory working at a teen challenge. At the North Carolina Boys Academy I have been a coach and worship leader for the past year. It has been an amazing time of speaking into young men’s lives and I will leave knowing that they have taught me far more about myself and God than I could have ever hoped to teach them. It has been one of the most challenging, productive, and exciting years of my life.But again, several months ago that question “What am I doing?” came back. I wasn’t asking myself any more, I was asking God what He was doing and what He wanted to do with me. An angel didn’t appear to me in a dream, I wasn’t blinded by a bright light on a road, but I did hear the still small voice of the Lord leading me. He stirred up a passion for the nations, to know God and make Him known, to live every day on the edge trusting in Him to get me through and to use me.That is the path God has had me on the past few years and I am excited to see where it’s going next. So far, the next visible steps are: the Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand, Cambodia, Malawi, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Ukraine, Romania, Albania, and Greece. I don’t know exactly what I will be doing in these countries but I am excited to be called and used by God. I hope that in this next year, God will show me more of His plan for my life, that I learn how to trust Him more and grow closer to Jesus. But until I leave in October, I will be back in my home town of High Point, NC, raising support for the trip ahead. I need 16,561 bucks so if you like like to support me, click the donate button at the top of your screen. Thank you all for reading. God bless.
