I've Got a Feeling...

I love adventures. I am not always fond of "new." But then again, "new" means an adventure. Logical, right?

I have been thinking, praying about going somewhere... somewhere that I've never been before. Somewhere far, far from home. Somewhere that is totally out of my comfort zone. (Comfort zone? Whatever could that be?) Somewhere that I really have no clue how I can be of use. But nevertheless, there is this nagging to go. Put aside all logic and just go.

I downloaded Chris Tomlin's newest album, and there's a song that has captured my heart (actually, quite a few). The lyrics....

Where you go, I'll go
Where you stay,
I'll stay When you move,
I'll move I will follow...

All your ways are good
All your ways are sure
I will trust in you alone
Higher than my side
High above my life
I will trust in you alone

Where you go,
I'll go Where you stay,
I'll stay When you move,
I'll move
I will follow you Who you love, I'll love
How you serve I'll serve
If this life I lose, I will follow you

I will follow you
Light unto the world
Light unto my life
I will live for you alone
You're the one I seek
Knowing I will find
All I need in you alone, in you alone
In you there's life everlasting
In you there's freedom for my soul
In you there joy, unending joy and I will follow

I love to belt out this song in the car, by myself, at the top of my lungs. But... besides just singing it, am I really willing to do what these words say? Am I willing to go, stay, give my life?

Oh, I feel Uganda calling... or at least I think I do. I have not prayed about it as much as I should have recently. But now is the time to go. Job, funds, vacation-time off, no school work to prevent me from going, no major commitments as of now. And I've been aching to go somewhere new. And there's this desire to step out and see how my little, meaningless life can be of worth for a greater cause, a meaningful cause. Hmmm. We shall see.
