Psalm 16:11

So I was thinking....

So I've been thinking...It would be sooo cool to be a missionary to some foreign, third-world 
country. Wouldn't that be absolutely amazing?!?! Maybe one day. Maybe God will call some of us to go there...But, hey! Who said we can't be missionaries right where we are, in the mean time? Being on the mission field doesn't necessarily mean in a different part of the world (although it could be!). Being a missionary could mean simply sharing Jesus with that little kid down the street or giving the cashier a Gospel tract, or even just not compromising and giving in to pressure. Although the others may laugh and think you're weird, that's how you let your light shine. They will see that there is something different about you, and It may even cause them to ask you questions about your faith and Jesus! Just because you're young, don't let that discourage you from serving God, as it says in 1 Timothy  4:12 (Let no one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity.)  Pray for opportunities to be used for eternal purposes, and don't let this special stage in your life be wasted--it only comes once! :) :) 

Reflections upon the past year......

Wow. 2015 next week! Where has the time gone?!?! As I was reflecting on different things that happened during this past year, this verse came to mind, which is definitely my very favorite verse!  I absolutely love it because it says that, even though we may not know the big picture of things at the moment, God's got it all under control. He still hasn't finished his perfect master plan for our lives yet (I'm so thankful for that!) If it wasn't for Him, who knows where any of us would be?? Philippians 1:6 is definitely very special to me since it is one of the verses God revealed to me when he brought me to salvation through his saving grace. Although I have like two million goals I need to accomplish and certain areas in my life I really need to work on, God is so good!! He ain't finished with me yet!! :-)  Who knows what big plans God has in store for us in 2015?!?!
