It's all about You . . .

Today, I began thinking about was I doing enough. As I taught Sunday School this morning to the youth, I began to remember my calling. At the age of 14 or so, I knew that my calling was Missions. Little did I know that I would be sharing God to others through my job as an educator. As a young adult, I constantly grappled with this concept- Where is God going to send me, out of Rocky Mount, NC. Fast forward about 20 some years, and it finally clicked. It's not about Jessica conquering the masses out in some third world country or even somewhere away from home.

It's about doing God's Will right here in Rocky Mount. It's about loving people right where they are. It's about building relationships with friends and people you don't even know.

I encouraged my Sunday School class to reach out to someone this week, even someone that they may not like. Then, I watched this video here on Stephanie Brown's page.

I cannot wait to see what God has in store for me in the public school arena in the next few years. God has been preparing me for this mass group of students that I will one day be responsible for as an Administrator.

I will be finished with my add-on license in July. I hope that I will be able to get a job here in Nash County where the involvement in religion is at an extremely low percentage.

So really, it is all about Him . . .

What can you do to share the love of God with others this week and every week?
