Hiya!
My name is Chloe Zhanee Young. And I am a Christian!
I was raised Christian by my two wonderfully loving and good parents, with my totally awesome big brother. But it’s not enough to be ‘raised Christian’. I CHOOSE Christian. I personally made the decision to give my heart to Christ when I was a young teen. At the time, I knew it was what I truly wanted, but I had NO IDEA what it would ultimately lead to! I have been blessed with peace, joy healing, and love beyond comprehension. I have seen and received miracles. I have felt in my heart such wonder-filled, joyful, love that no man could possibly mistake for anything other than the Holy Spirit of God Himself.
Yes. I choose Christian; I choose Jesus Christ as my Lord and Master. It’s an indescribably wonderful liberation!
As a human, prone to ‘missing the mark’, I admit that I don’t always follow that soft voice that guides me. But right now He is leading me into wonders that only He could prepare me for. He has prepared me with dreams of travel, a passion for foreign cultures and languages, and a breathtaking, nearly overwhelming, love for His creation.
When I first encountered World Race and learned that there is a mission trip that means serving Him in 11 DIFFERENT COUNTRIES over a span of 11 WHOLE MONTHS, I thought I was gona hyperventilate with excitement! haha! He has prepared me, He has drawn me, and He will send me.
Over the past few years, I have received a highly concentrated transformation. I have not ‘changed’; I have been ‘shifted’. Transformed. Healed. Guided through growth. It’s been remarkable and awesome. All this time I’ve spent on me; growing and learning with His guidance. I feel like a tree that has blossomed; by His grace and love. And I’ve noticed a feeling of wanting to give, to literally share myself with others. I do not mean this pridefully, but to glorify my Creator. God’s creations are always wonderful, and I have discovered that this creation of me is no different. I am fearfully and WONDERFULLY made! I have seen the impact I can have on others by His grace and blessing within me. It’s time for me to be His hands and feet. His voice. Whatever He needs me to be for others. I can imagine no greater honor.
And so I go. Not to one, but to 11 countries. And after that… Who knows?! 😀
