Missions!?!

Well, it's been quite some time since I have blogged last and since I'm needing to write a paper I thought it just may been a good time to blog. Maybe not, but I have had a lot going on in my life and thought it maybe time to share.  In the past few months I have decided or rather felt a call from God.  That call was to go into missions. This mission would be with an organization called YES: Youth Evangelism Service.  So, this upcoming January I will heading up to PA for two months of training and then four months of outreach.  At this point, I'm not sure what country I will going to, but I'm hoping and praying to go to Honduras.  As I'm going through the process of preparing myself for this next part of my life I'm beginning to feel a wide sort of emotions.  Though emotions are very natural when not knowing what to expect when preparing to be gone for a long period of time. I'm honestly ready to get out of my comfort zone and become cultured in other parts of the world. As for now school consumes a majority of my life.  Criminal justice is beginning to create interest, so I'm excited to see if that is an area in which God is needing me to serve him in my life. :)

Day 1

I have finally created my first blog. I had been debating with myself whether or not to create a blog for a few years. I'm not sure what was holding me back other than the sheer fact of random people being able to read my feelings. At this point I'm going to be using this blog as a personal space where I can share. However, I'm still debating the structure and probably won't figure out my direction for quite awhile. As this is my first blog I'm still kind of confused about how to present myself in this public setting where I maybe vulnerable. I'm not the one to discuss personal information over such a public setting, however, I did intend to use this as somewhat of an out from my normal every day life. While I'm normally against the whole 'put yourself out there and tell the whole world who you are.' I however have decided to be bold and do something that brings me out of my box. Therefore, only time will tell how this blog develops! So I suppose I will end it up here. I think this counts as a good first entry. Hopefully for more to come.
