"Sometimes when we are called to obey, the fear does not subside and we are expected to move against the fear. One must choose to do it afraid." - Elizabeth Elliot
I watched this video today and it spoke to me. It hit me harder than anything I've read, watched, listened to....If you have 10 minutes, then please watch this video.
Move Against the Fear from AIM On-Field Media on Vimeo.
"Are my feet willing to move against the fear? I don't know what to do with this, but there's one thing I do know: I can no longer just walk away..."
These words are not my own, but they speak of exactly how I feel at this moment.
If you are reading this then you should know a few things:
* I went to Ethiopia almost 2 years ago. I don't know why I felt the need to go, but I listened to God and I went...that was the begninning of a huge change in my life.
* I quit my job 2 months ago not just because I was unhappy, but because I was unhappy I wasn't serving God.
* I feel a pull to missions. Not once in a while, but permanently. Not just living overseas, but there are so many ways to serve missions even here in the States.
* I have researched countless organizations and I am asking for prayer, your prayer, for God to continue to lead the way and open doors.
* I am inviting you to follow me on my journey. This blog is labeled "little side note" because this blog can only capture moments of my life. What I share with you are just a few notations of the "going-ons" in my life.
Blessings,
Jen
