Missions
If you think about it, pray for me. I need it desperately. These past couple weeks, God has been bombarding my heart with a burden for missions. Every time in the past that there has been someone speaking on missions, I think oh here we go again and effectively tune them out. But God has been using, chapel, church, and wednesday evening campus prayer meeting to soften my heart and make it ache for missions. I don't know what this all means...Am I supposed to just go on a short missions trip? Should I use my teaching degree and teach in a foreign country? Should I just give up everything I've worked so hard for for 4 years and go be a missionary? I have no clue! I need guidance over the next year big time to know what I should be doing for the Lord. I am excited, but scared to see where God will be taking me!!!

Wow, that is a whole lot to think about, huh? It sounds like you are "moldable" and that you're allowing God to shape your life. I'm really proud of you for surrendering to Him and that you are willing to let Him send you "to the ends of the Earth!"
I absolutely cannot believe that someone had the nerve to say that you shouldn't be a gym teacher. OH MY GOONDESS! Who the heck are they to tell you what you should or shouldn't do with your life? Being a gym teacher is a wonderful calling and God can use you in an amazing way through that (if that's how it works out). Give me a break!
And about you "not having a man on your arm," it's not like your 75 or something! You are only in your early 20's... You have a lot of life ahead of you. Goodness sakes! You are a beatiful, gifted, funny person and when the right guy crosses your path he's gonna be very lucky. Don't be discouraged! I hope you aren't:-) As happy as I am living my life with my family, I sometimes wonder what it would be like to be single, on my own, and going cool places and doing cool things. I think it's normal to look at life from different views.
So, anyways, I returned your long comment with another long comment. I guess we're even:-)
