How then shall we live?

As a Christian, how should I be living my life? I have to ask myself this question sometimes. In the middle of this crazy, fast paced world that we are living in, I still want my answer to remain the same - my life should be lived for God and for others. This semester I will be studying in Rwanda and Uganda, and doing mission work with Food for the Hungry. These next few months I want to make a drastic change in my life by living not for myself, but for others. Through my studies and my interactions I hope to find a new and better understanding of what it means to be a child of God. I want to leave with no question in my mind that there is so much more to my life than my own happiness. I want to make my Creator proud, by loving his children.

I've caught the bug..

The Africa bug!! How could I avoid being contaminated with a passion for this continent!?

I am on a ten minute break between the first and second half of my Context for Development class and I can't contain how excited I am to be learning this. How could I not be completely fascinated with this country and its history. How could I not be completely caught up in a desire to learn about community development. There are so many new thoughts and questions in my head right now, it is overwhelming!!

Just had to tell somebody!!

...More later..
