I went to Haiti in September of 2012, and it was honestly one of the best experiences of my life. I think that Jesus calls everyone to serve, but people serve in different ways. Some people serve in offices with a suit on, and other people serve in their homes. But I think I was called to serve as a missionary, and the Haiti trip really helped me figure out how I was called to serve. But the problem, as some people would see it, is that I`m not exactly sure where God has called me to serve. Africa? Haiti? Mexico? Alabama? I just don`t know yet. And to some people, that would seem a bad thing. Not knowing scares a lot of people including me. It causes us to worry. But, if we knew how everyday of the rest of our life was going to be, then where would the adventure of trusting God be? Granted I still have 3 and a half years until I go to college so, I have sometime before I have to make any life changing decisions. But I don`t want to spend the next 3 and a half years worrying. I want to spend them trusting, and adventuring. So I guess Jesus knew what he was talking about when he said, "But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of it own."-Matthew 6:33-34.
So I guess you could say that my New Years Resalation (yes, it`s a made up word, a cross between revelation and resolution) is to not worry, trust, to and hang on for the ride.
