Oh, man. I'm watching VH1's Top 100 One-Hit Wonders, and I'm loving it. I totally wish I could have grown up in the 80's. I've gotta say, Alannah Myles is looking great.
Last night, I went to The House, and dang. I don't know the speaker dude's name, but every time I go, he always says exactly what I need to hear. He was saying to think about what breaks our hearts, and what breaks God's heart, and when those things align. . . Maybe God is telling you to do something about it. And then he said something that amazed me: "Maybe God wants you to go to Africa." I truly believe God was speaking to me through him. I want so badly to go to Africa, and do whatever I can to help the people over there. Anyway, what I really need right now are your prayers. For one thing, I haven't the funds to go to Africa, and for another, I don't know exactly when and where God wants me to go. All I do know is that God has given me a love for the African people and a desire to share His amazing, wonderful love and power with them.
Oh, and I also gave blood last night! It was amazing, to watch my blood, my life, flow out of my arm so that it can save three people's lives. Three people! Just two hours of my time and a few pricks saves three people! I am without a doubt going to continue giving blood whenever I can. I just felt so incredulous, so in awe of modern medicine and, especially, our bodies.
I'm feeling so good! I love you guys!

Well sign up for the peace corps and maybe you can request to go to Africa. I mean it would be all volunteer work but I think they give you housing and food and all that stuff.
ReplyDeleteI am looking in to it. I know someone who is in Jamacia right now with the peace corps helping out and he says it is amazing. Also when you get back you get the feeling of helping ones that need you and you also get a resume booster. So its a win win. Just something to think about!
