Missions...
This past weekend, the topic of "Missions" came up in all my conversations w/ friends..and it has got me thinking, would I be a candidate for serving overseas or in other countries? I know there will never be a "right time", when God says GO, I will go...A lot of my friends have gone on Mission trips or will be going on them soon but for those of us who have yet to experience it, well perhaps soon. Honestly, I admire people who go on these mission trips to go and do God's work. With that said, the people doing His work right here in Sauga or GTA or wherever they maybe are also admirable. You can be a SS teacher, a part of the worship team, or various committees/involvement within your local Church.
For me personally, I do see doing missions in the future in a third world country or other various developing countries. Yes, there will be cultural shock and a lot of depressing situations but at the same time, I think I'd learn a lot more. Perhaps not full time, but for three weeks or a month...At the same time, something that was brought up in one of the conversations, did we waste our time in obtaining our degrees/education? That thought did cross my mind but I'm sure that God can use our talents in those countries no matter how different it may be. He has plans for each and every one of us. He knows our future, He knows our every thought, we just need to trust in Him. He will show us the way!
