June 9, 2008 - The Arrival

Missions has always been on my heart since the first encounter of a 'Mission Trip.' Growing spiritualy for God hasn't always been uplifting, but He has showed me his love and truth for as long as I've been a Christian. But those downward spirals are the times that I had seen God work most.

Those dark times were the most progressive for me. I never asked, "why Me?" and pulle the 'pity card.' Instead I asked 'Why me?" and persued Him more. I wanted to know why he chose me to be his servant.

The trials that God has put me through the last several months has brought the question back into my mind, 'Why Me?' What more do you want for me?' What is Your will? And servanthood was his answer. That was the time that I became involved with our young Adult Ministry.

I started there with a need God showed me. A need for communication and community, and throught this position he brought to me a missions opportunity, and knowing my heart and ambition he gave me the money to be here. To show me and tell me 'why?'
