Hey guys!!
Sorry its taken me so long to post on here. Alot has transpired since May 24th...God's so good though because He has a purpose for my life, and a tiny smidgen has been revealed to me, and I'm so excited about serving God!!
I have a friend who has a friend and through my friend I was able to contact her friend and talk over facebook with her. Through our correspondence she told me all about her sister who was a missionary down in Honduras. She hinted to me that they were always looking for teachers. I was so excited and I started asking questions, and more questions, and more questions. I was interested to say the least. But I had made one huge wrong decision that led to heartache and I wanted beyond a doubt to make sure that this was God's will for my life. I couldn't "think" I knew what I was doing, I had to make sure the plans I was making were God's plans for my life. So I took a full week to think and pray and read my Bible. I was watching the Tannous's house that week, God was working everything out perfectly for me. It was quiet and peaceful there. After a week, I knew in my heart God wanted me to go. The missionary down in Honduras even called me and talked to me about the work down in Honduras. It got me even more excited to see that I would be put to work. I am excited to see all that God has down there for me. I have no idea what to expect. The language will be different, the climate will be different. the people will be different, my living environment will totally change, and I know it will get lonely and even discouraging some times. And yet, God seems to just give me a joyful and an excitement that I don't understand.
When I was growing up on the mission field, I always told myself and others that I didn't want to be a missionary, I wanted to be a teacher and work in the States. God knew my heart, and He had His own way of changing my mind. God always knows what's best for our lives even better than we know ourselves :) So through a series of circumstances, and me getting close to the heart of God, my desires began to change. My heart began to soften towards leaving my friends and family to serve God. I can never explain how God changed my heart only to say that when I grew close to God He gave me all the desires of my heart. (He might of had to change my heart a little...lol) but God is a God of Faithfulness. He has always been there for me, and I am so excited that I can serve Him, and step out by faith to do what He has called me to do!!
