Thoughts on Anything and Everything
I don't really even know what to say but I know that there is a lot going on in my head.
1. I want to be at the dead center of God's will for my life. I know that is the place where I will grow the most and where I will find the most satisfaction in life. I believe applying for the BLS in March is the step of faith that God wanted. It just leaves a lot of uncertainty in my mind about what I am to do afterwards. I trust God will let me know when the time is right. I just always want to be in a position where I am always going to be stretched and growing towards the destiny that God has planned for me.
2. I would like to go help Haiti. Seems like a crazy idea but for whatever reason my spirit jumps every time I think about it. I have thought out a tentative action plan in my head and it seems pretty plausible. A few different things would have to happen first but I excited nonetheless.
3. I feel like my life is a slide. I feel like a make steady progress upward just to get to the top and slide down. I really just would like to continue on the upward path. Seems like the higher you get the more tempting the ride down becomes. Then you get to the bottom and realize the ride was not at all like you thought it would be. Though the bottom is never nearly as far down as the time before nor does it ever last as long, it is still not something to be desired. I believe it is God's desire for us to be always moving forward in EVERY area of our lives. From GLORY TO GLORY! This is my hearts desire.
2 Corinthians 3:16-18
But whenever anyone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord's glory, are being transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.
4. I wish that I had more companionship. I wish that I had more people who I was close to both geographically and emotionally. There are a number of people that are one or the other but not many at all that fit both. A lot of times I feel like I desire relationship more than the person I want relationship with. I know it sounds selfish but I want people who want to spend time with me. I also think that it would be cool at some point to have a mentor type person in my life. Though I know a lot of great people who are older than me I cant think of anyone I know in that way for one reason or another. Maybe someone that walks in the miraculous because that is something I am really quite hungry for.
5. I want to lead. I want the opportunity to lead. It is something that a lot of people have spoken over me. It is something I know that I need to grow in. It is something that I know will stretch me. I want to impact peoples lives the way my life has been impacted by others. I want to be able to speak into peoples lives.
6. I want to go to Africa. I want to go on short term trips. I want to go on long term trips. I can see myself being there for extended amounts of time. I know the people in Africa are in need of Jesus and are open to hearing the Gospel. I want to impact Africa as a whole. East Africa, South Africa, North Africa. I want to help develop a generation of Africans who will turn their backs on all the world has to offer and seek what God has to offer above all else.
7. I want to leave a legacy. I want to change the world.
8. Sometimes I think that I think to big. Sometimes I think that I want too much. Most of the time I think as people in general we dream to small. We serve an infinite God. Our dreams should reflect the full glory and power of the one we serve.
John 10:10b
I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
Ephesians 3:20a
Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine
James 1:17
Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows
Unrelated to the above but I find to be interesting.
Romans 11:29
for God's gifts and his call are irrevocable (more on this later)
