the longings of my heart

So first, I totally forgot that I had set up this blog. I was thinking to myself, I should start blogging again...so I jumped on to set one up ....and low and behold I already had. :)
So, I read the one post I had, and I had to laugh. I am almost positive that was posted the day that I lost my teaching job and had not yet been hired at Teen Mania-- but had high hopes that would happen.
Only a week after that I was offered a fulltime job at TeenMania...which is what my heart had been asking for and where I knew the Lord was leading.
Even funnier thing...the reason I decided to start blogging again is again...my heart is stirring.
My heart wants many things...but it only longs and yearns for one...to be in the full will of the Lord. I have known since I was 15 that I was not called to live a "normal" life. I knew that things were going to be different for me than what the "average" person may desire.
I desire to hold black babies in Africa...I desire to feed the hungry in India...I desire to play with the orphans in Cambodia...I desire to hear the stories of elderly women in Romania as they teach me to cook a native dish...I desire to "be Jesus" to the nations.
And that is what I shall do.
