My heart

Month 8th has come and have already gone to over 11 countries. I have leaned so much on this journey. I have learned boldness, love, humility, and selflessness, etc... God has broken me into pieces and has put me back together beautiful. I have learned my purpose in him, and how deep His love for me.  I know he is not finished with me yet this is the beginning. 

One day while in Mozambique at the orphanage Trish and I were sitting outside with the kid looking at the stars. The kids started to sing and you could just imagine 20 kids singing African songs that sound like heaven. It was beautiful! I was praying to God to show me lots of shooting stars, so all of a sudden I saw five of them. Then I asked God to show me one if he wanted me to be a missionary. I saw the biggest shooting star I have ever seen. Then I asked Him where? He said "I can use you anywhere" go where the desires of your heat are."

I felt free when I heard God's voice telling me that. I can go anywhere!! God is going to use me anywhere!! All I could think about was Latin America. My heart was left in Guatemala and Nicaragua. More then half way done on the Race I have realized that I LOVE Latin America with a passion. 

But I also know God is calling me home to bring Kingdome for awhile. As most of you know I am the only Christian in my family. But, also God has given me a passion for my friends and church.  I want to bring kingdom to those that I love. I want to let them know how much God longs for them and loves them. Everyone is greatly loved by the king and treasured. 

I have 3 and a half months left of the Race and I am ready to start the journey. The new journey God has called me on. Also another thing that God has put on my heart is to go to discipleship school. I know it will help to equip me to bring kingdom everywhere I go and to build the ministry God is calling me to. 

Please continue to pray  with me. That God will prepare the hearts at home for when I go home and that he will use me as he wants me to.
