It is funny to look at your life and how you always pictured it and then in all actuality it is something completely different. That is the story of my life today and I praise Jesus for it. It turns out His picture for my life was more beautiful than I ever could have imagined.

 

Last year I went on the World Race, July 2008 squad, and

it changed my life. It changed the way I saw God, it gave me a new sense of freedom in worship and in life, it secured my true identity in Christ, the race opened my eyes to the devastation around the world, and it put me on a new path for my life. Before I went on the race I was doing the corporate thing and trying to find where I fit and what I was supposed to do with my life. I went to school for Fashion Merchandising and learned after a few years in that field that it was not for me. So the search began for my purpose. I was working a desk job as a medical recruiter and drowning in it. My heart told me there had to be more to life than just clocking in and out of work and being involved in my singles ministry at church. Don't get me wrong, I loved my life in Atlanta. I was so happy that was one of the main reasons it took me so long to search for my true calling. But I could no longer de

ny it, I was hungry for more of life and ultimately just more of God.
