It is so hard to figure out what life is all about sometimes. What do you do, where do you go, what will you accomplish, where will your future lead you and what decisions will you make to get yourself there? Are you doing what you were meant to do? Sometimes I feel so lost in trying to figure out who I am and what on earth I am here on earth for. I am a Christian who struggles every day to be the man that God wants me to be, and wont stop at anything to please the Lord. What am I here for?
I am going to try to blog in here daily, my thoughts, hopes and dreams... and hopefully these things will be apparent on the way through.
Right now there are three directions I see my life possibly going in. I could work in the restaurant business with Chick-fil-A (I know it sounds corny, but it is an incredible company), I could become a broadcaster (I am a Radio/TV News major... it would makes sense for me to go into that field), or I can follow my heart and become a full time Missionary. Nothing I think of doing feels as right as that. Everything else feels like I would be wasting my time and my energy... all of my talents...

Jon,
I know I was called into ministry since I was 14. Ever since then I have spent all of my time trying to run away from it. Thats honestly why I left PBA for 2 and a half years. When I came back I told God I would come back but have a stupid major like Political Science and have a career there and use it as a spring board for missions... Since I got here God has radically changed that mindset. I can't figure out for the life of me why I want to escape the thing I want to do most in life except that I don't feel I am worthy to be one who bares the image of Christ to those who have never seen it before. But then I got to thinking, if I was worthy to serve God, he probably wouldn't be able to use me. Only through my shortcomings as a man is God able to demonstrate his grace as an example in my life. God has placed this desire for missions in your life for a reason. If you do anything else you may make good money, but I guarantee you that you won't prosper. I love you buddy.
