I've decided to create a blog. What better time than now, especially since I'm with the knowledge of what God has been doing in my heart these last few years. It has become more evident within the last MONTHS, that I am being prepared for something larger than myself.
Today was the first Malawi meeting with a few of the peeps from Bridgeway's Young Adult Ministry (YAM). Some of my thoughts have been tugging at my heart that I will need to pray about myself before I can form into words...
I am taking this experience as my ultimate test of my faith. I felt burdened back in November 2009 that I should be doing something with my degree, with my skills and gifting. That was when I felt that it was time to get a passport. I have this desire to live the way God has made me. I studied Nutrition and Dietetics to impact Public Health. I have done so in many ways throughout the Sacramento Region via volunteer or directly within the workforce. This recession (and my time without a job) has gotten me thinking.
Someone once told me: "When you are local, you should think globally and when you are global, to think locally."
Such true words that have resonated in my head. Therefore this is my test of faith that God will not only provide but that I will be a true vessel for Him and his work. For myself and the team from YAM to be the Lord's hands and feet. Yet I am at the beginning stages of all of this. We'll see what God's plan is in the end.
**I will continuously lift all of my concerns in prayer as I begin to formulate my thoughts for prayer and support letters to send to family and friends.**
Test 1,2,3...
"The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field." Matthew 13:44 NIV.

About this blog
I'm just a girl taking a journey in this world.
This is an extension of my journey with missions, the broken, abandoned and abused individuals of this world. This is a blog of my mission work.. the process to raise support, prayer and build lasting relationships. My hope in the future is to impact on the level of health education and awareness and public health but also to nurture the spiritual aspects of soul.
