This past year has been incredible and excruciating, filled with love and the rawness of life. I've learned that, to die is gain and to love Jesus is fulfilling. I've discovered who I am and what I want from life. I want to be radical. I want to always live for Jesus. I want to love. I want to be loved.
I've dreamt more than I knew I even could. I've become someone I didn't know I could be. God gave me freedom. He breathed LIFE into me and gave me something worth living for. I am blessed.
Since returning home from YWAM, I've decided to move to Oregon. I've gone through a lot of change in the past months, and as it turns out, I'm not so good with it.....I like to know why and how, and all the answers to my questions. I like to plan. I've been challenged in ways I didn't think I would be since coming back to America. Since God has given me dreams and desires, I thought I would set out to conquer them. He is teaching me how and in his timing. In fact, I'm not really sure what direction my life is heading right now. However, I am sure that if I do not love along the way, everything is meaningless.
Something is happening in my spirit. I've lost a bit of the passion I've discovered since returning home. Now is the time to live out the person I became, and to live like a daughter of the King! Why am I holding back? What have I to lose? To lose everything for the name of Jesus is LIFE and fulfillment! So, why not?.....
In a few months I will be going back to New Zealand on my Around the World ticket with some of my Ywam friends (lord willing), and I am stoked beyond words..............
