Setting Sail for Adventure


Deep down I feel I will always regret. I'm 23 and waiting for my life to start. I'm tired of it. Maybe it's time to complete that Peach Corp application. Maybe it's time to move. I don't want to reach retirement and still be waiting. God, give me adventure. Please don't make my life ordinanry.

These feelings prompted the application process for Impact Ireland. Over a year later, I have taken another step to live a life less ordinary for God. I've applied to the Operation Mobilization Ships. It's a 2 year program, ministering around the Pacific or Europe. Because of school debt, my departure would be around Jan '10. That's right 2010. The application process just started and I'm sure there are more question then answers, so here's the website. Check it out. I'm seeking God in this and just because I've started the process, doesn't mean the timing is right...but what if it is. What if this call is real and I have the oppurtunity to teach others about Jesus; to show them Jesus.

It's all very exciting and as much as I'd like to share this with everyone face to face, I wasn't sure how or when to do this. Please let me know if you have any questions and I'll try to fill you in. Right now I'm waiting for my app to be reviewed. Then it's a matter of gather references, getting a physical, and attending a conference in Atlanta. I'll countinue to update on the process.
