Things are becoming even more clear.
So, you know how at the eye doctor, they get to the point where they flip lenses back and forth and ask you “1 or 2?” to try and get the clearest picture for you? That’s how I feel right now. God keeps making things even more defined and clear in my life and where it’s going.
I am THRILLED to say that I am coming back to Minnesota December 19th, and when I do it will be for a good long while. I am ready to settle in, not because it is home, but because it is where I feel God wants me right now.
So many of the things waiting for me there – City Teens (church youth group), City Groups, my church family – line up with the calling God has placed on my life, or as we define it in my favorite class here at CGA, God’s unique purpose for my life. I want to dive back into teaching and discipling and just live out all the Lord is showing me here.
I plan to continue blogging and building my platform. I will also be in the process of editing and revising my first book, hoping to publish sometime in 2016! I can’t believe I just typed that sentence! Thanks Papa…and story track 🙂
I will also get a full-time job, not just because I need to pay my bills, but because I want a second chance to steward a salary well. At this point, I don’t know exactly what type of job I am looking for and I’m not sure it’s a main concern or priority for me right now. I feel my passions will be unleashed through my involvement with City on a Hill and working on editing my book and blogging.
I am also working on a shorter eBook that will be available for you to download and read by the time I graduate from CGA! So, GET EXCITED! All of these things are a part of living out my calling – a combination of my passions, skills, the world’s needs, and a plan. So, I wanted to share with all of you my calling, in a sentence (it’s a work in progress, but I like it a lot so far):
