Lately I've been inspired by several things and situations around me. From friends to conversations with people. Like last Saturday at church, I was talking to my brother, who 5 minutes earlier was talking to one of the man from church, he's young (aprox. 30 years old), and he's married and has 2 beautiful kids between the age of 3-7, his wife is pregnant right now. She's a beautiful young lady that works really hard at church and she's just a sweetheart. BUT, they've been having some serious economic problems. He doesn't have a job right now, she's not working, and they don't have money to buy food sometimes, it's gotten to the point that he's gone "Pigeon Hunting" to the woods to get food on the table when their kids return from school. This is hard, even to write it down, and I wish I had all the money in the world to help them out, because feeling sorry for them doesn't fix things, piddy them does not fix ANYTHING at all without ACTION. And so, I ask you maybe not to help THEM, but help anyone you can, a can of food can do a difference, if you can't afford so many things, don't feel bad by giving little. Don't feel bad by taking even just a piece of your food and give it to those you really really need it.
This girl, Jessica Jackley, inspired me today, in THIS video, she talks about giving, poverty, money and love. And I think those 18 minutes with 34 seconds were WORTH watching. And I think you should totally totally watch it as well, it's gonna change your perspective on how you see poverty. It's amazing. And it made me remember about my long life dream....AFRICA!. And you see, is not that I'm those kind of people that "want to be like a famous person", such as Madonna, Angelina Jolie, etc etc. That get fame by adopting children from those countries. Nop, that's not me. I want to make a difference not only in my country (where some serious help could be needed), but to make a difference in other regions where necessity is a lot more urgent and my help could really be of importance and impact. I want to give them God, I want them to see the light, I want them to experience what I experience by believing in God and keeping is commandments and how precious it is to be a part of his people and how that makes a difference in my life. I WANT TO SERVE...so so so so bad!.
I love my career, I love my family and I love my country, BUT, when it comes to serve, I don't care about dropping everything as it is and go SERVE.
I want to make a difference in the world, I want God to use me to change lives so the people can see his glory.
For now, I'm gonna help where I can help, I'm gonna serve where I can serve, and I'm gonna do it WELL, and I'm gonna do it for the Lord (Colosians 3:23-24) God will see about the future and he will WRITE IT as he pleases...This is where I am for now, this is where he wants me to be, I don't complain. I'm happy for now
What about you?
Blessings for all!,
Love
Jen
