Dreaming Big.

so ever since October-November I have been dreaming about Destination: ________. I feel led to spend some time away from the states in order to serve others wholeheartedly. I have come to find that I am the most overjoyed when I am focusing on others instead of myself. As humans we can't help but think of our wants, needs, et al- -and this just sickens me. I am the first to admit that I do this a lot. Do I have to be thinking about my needs that much? OF COURSE NOT! So this summer instead of doing the usual summer school, work, and rest schedule, I decided that I want to spend a month in another country fulfilling my purpose. My purpose is to serve. Missions, humanatarian work, etc have such a big place in my heart. I feel like its something I want to pursue for the rest of my life. I know that I don't have the money to do much right now, but I know that the Lord will provide a way for me to go out into the world and serve those who are brokenhearted, bruised, lonely. He has called me to the places that others rarely even think of. More importantly he has chosen me to be a light in this world. Wherever I am, I want people to see him in me. I know that I always say this but..."ya no vivo yo, mas Cristo vive en mi!"

So as I continue to pray for Destination: _______. I pray that the Lord provides financially. I understand that no one provides better than he does. Whatever the sum of this trip is, its gonna be covered, I have faith. I'm getting a job this semester in order to cover most of my expenses- -I hope it all turns out well! I'll have to juggle school, job, and all of the organizations and commitees I'm in, but I'm a trooper. He is with me! :)

ISAIAS 41:10-13>> "No temas, porque Yo estoy contigo; no desmayes porque Yo soy tu Dios que te esfuerzo; siempre te ayudaré, siempre te sustentaré con la diestra de mi justicia.He aquí que todos los que se enojan contra tí serán avergonzados y confundidos; serán como nada y perecerán los que contienden contigo.Buscarás a los que tienen contienda contigo, y no los hallarás; serán como nada, y como cosa que no es, aquellos que te hacen la guerra.Porque Yo, Jehová soy tu Dios, quien te sostiene de tu mano derecha, y te dice: No temas, Yo te ayudo."

so whether its through Camp ____ or interning for Buchner Intl. Destination: _____ is happening! :)
