For the past few years God has called me to do some scary things. I felt like He asked me to give up my dreams, my education, my comforts and my future plans. But I now see that this isn’t a sacrifice. Yeah, it was hard to step away from school and friends and home but He has been taking me on such a better journey than I would have chosen for myself.

 

God loves me so much that He wouldn’t let my own plans get in the way of what He created me for. I know without a doubt in my mind that this is where He planned for me to be. He wants me here in the middle of Guatemala hanging out with C-Squad and I love it. I love this. Things are definitely not easy and squad leading is a challenge, but God is teaching me so much.

 

When I think about what to do next after these 5 months with my squad, I ask God to scare me. I want to do something that is bigger than myself. Just like being a squad leader, I know that I have to rely on His strength because I know that I am not strong enough. This is the place I want to live in, this is where I am asking God to take me next and for the rest of my life.
