Starting A New

Now that I am back to doing life in the states, it seems a little hard at times to get my bearings. Sometimes it feels like the last 6 month were a dream, and then I wake up. I am in the same place, but I feel different. What do I do with that? Well I guess that is the question that I'm waiting for God to answer.

So here is what I do know:

  • I am supposed to serve, wherever the need, if that is where God intends for me to go. Whether it is cleaning poop or joining an organization...whether I'm in the background, or in front. I'm ready.
  • I'm not going to continue to live in my mother's house unless I have to. Not because it is bad, but I'm ready to be fully independent. 
  • I need a job :)
  • I will be grateful for what I have, always be willing to give it away, and not want for material things. Continue to watch and learn how to be selfless with my most "prized possessions".
  • I will not fall stagnant, or at least not stay there. 
  • I will not lose sight of the God that I caught a glimpse of.
  • I will try to run along side the active God I serve, no matter how difficult that trail is. 
  • I will not go to church, and do my Christian duties, but I will find a way to open eyes about the Kingdom of God and do what I can to bring that Kingdom to the here and now, for those who have not yet experienced it.
  • Learning is just as vital, if not more than teaching. 
  • Listening is always better than speaking. 
  • Brokenness and humility are the easiest ways to combat pride.
  • I will sustain relationships with my family and friends, and those who reside far away, I will make it a priority to have community in any way shape or form.
