cultural awakening




as missions seems to be the general talk of the town these days, I've found myself thinking about it a lot more than usual.
for those who don't know, I'm planning on going out on missions this summer to...who knows?
so after trying very hard to have a set preference, I just decided not to have one and see where God takes me.
it's kind of an exciting prospect, no?

after talking to people and thinking profusely about which country I want, I think I just realized how much time I was wasting trying to decide when ultimately it's God's decision.
to be honest, I don't know much or anything at all about these countries: uganda, russia, india, china, japan.
so when people started telling me about their experiences, my eyes were opened and every country seemed equally amazing.
another lesson learned: don't be quick to close off your heart.

on that note: I'm gonna need a lot of prayer. and since you all love me, pray for me :)
