I've spent the bulk of my summer in Korea being a nomad amongst my own people. I was given the opportunity to share the love of God using English as a tool to harvest His kingdom. I went to Korea with the mindset to give God, but instead I left having been given God. Growing closer to Christ, gaining new friends, and grasping a new perspective on life are just some of the main highlights that encompass this mission trip. I feel so incredibly blessed.
Prior to my trip, I made some pretty critical decisions that will consequently alter my life--nothing negative, nothing bad. In fact, my decisions harbor only good things for my life. After being set on my visions of being an elementary school teacher--something that I was set on for 6 years--I've changed my major to Nursing in hopes of becoming a registered nurse.
It's a big task and roads of obstacles, but I am on fire. My goal in life is to help people, whether I make a lot of money or not wasn't the question. Regardless of what I choose as a career, I just know that I HAVE to help people, help people to be happy, and to help people be the best they can. Many people doubt my abilities of doing this, my parents stress about the hard working conditions I will have to face--but all in all, I have faith and trust in God to provide me with His strength and His grace.

Teaching will always be something I love to do and something that I may ALWAYS fall back on. As for now, I know nursing is what I have to do. When you get a phone call, you answer, right?
Well, Nursing called...and I answered.
