Okay, I am sorry. I should have made a lot more posts than I have by now, but I just don’t know what to say. I haven’t done anything spectacular and I haven’t left for the Race yet, what I could I possibly have to say? Nobody wants to read about my life as a high school student (actually I graduated one week ago, but that is beside the point), going through the motions week by week. I’m just waiting for training camp, and then I’ll be waiting for launch.
Well. God called me in for a little heart to heart about it.
A certain, special map has become very near and dear to my heart recently. A lot of people have asked me why I got it and told me it was a waste, but this map is a reminder of what God recently laid on my heart. I was originally just going to get a map of Africa because Africa has had my heart for so long, but I’ve come to realize that I’m not just a missionary when I’m in Africa, when I’m in Jamaica, or when I’m actually on the Race.
Im a missionary everywhere I am. I am constantly a witness for Jesus Christ. No matter where I am in the world, I can still show God’s love and share the gospel. My map reminds me that as a child of God, I will forever be bearing Christ’s name. It doesn’t matter if I’m helping in an orphanage in Africa or buy groceries at the Kroger down the street from my home, Im still the candle for God’s light to shine in this dark world.
