Well ello ello!
What a wonderful opportunity it is to go on a mission around the World to share the love and hope of Jesus Christ! I believe the biggest reason God has called me on this trip is to not let me settle for passivity but actively pursue Christ in every facet of my life. To put a deep burning passion in my heart that will not fade easily but will allow me to shape my life around it! It would be easy to get a job, to live a comfortable life, in a comfy home with a nice dog and some close friends! There is a void in my heart and Jesus is the only one that can fill it, or i will allow the American Dream to hold me captive. So i choose to relinquish my right of comfort and dive into the extraordinary adventure that Jesus has for me 🙂
