Inspiration to live

What am I supposed to do in life? Have I figured it out? No. Not at all. But that's okay because God is slowly working on this for me. "Come bring your burdens to God for Jesus will never say no". This means I really don't have to worry, but it's something I have been contemplating for a while. I have officially decided that although I will keep my social work major (I love it too much to let it go) I may not actually go into social work. I feel a calling to missions and only mission. Yes, I can always use the social work, but I have been questioning do I really need it? I am planning to make my way back to the Middle East. Except possibly the next time I go back I will be in Iraq or Afghanistan working with the people and living there for two or more years. Missions means the world to me and all I want to do is help people. I want to work together to create this idea of peace. To make it come true. It is possible. And I want to teach others about it and loving one another. One Bible verse that has constantly been popping up everywhere has been Micah 6:8. "Act with justice, love one another and walk humbly with God". I'm actually planning on getting a tattoo with that on my foot sometime soon. :) But anyways....that verse is exactly what I want to live by and what I want to teach others. God has done great things for me and has provided more than enough for me. He came into my life and has changed who I was. Now he is going to use me and I am ready for anything he has planned. Even if that means leaving the country for a few years or even moving back home and doing local work. Whatever he wants to do he will make it happen.
