Come Be the Fire Inside of Me...

The news. The wonderful fantastic news. HOORAY FOR NEW ADVENTURES! Pearce and I have the most amazing opportunity to go on a short term missions trip to the Dominican Republic March 26-April 2.

Missions? It's not about religion. It's not about getting people involved in their local church. There's no agenda. It's love. It's desperation. It's time. It's feeding the hungry. It's holding orphans. It's brushing up against someone who might have never been touched. It's giving hope. True hope. It's giving truth.

Starting next month, Pearce and I are going to start raising funds so that we can dive back into full time missions by the end of next year. We have several opportunities in Australia, Thailand, Mexico, and even here in Florida. We are just waiting to hear from God where we are to move and live and love first.

We have our first mission though...start to raise funds.

We have our second mission...Short term trip in March.

Our mission isn't to scream 'Jesus Loves You!' to others...It's to show them...and maybe use words if necessary...maybe.

It's a call I will answer. I know that this is just as much for me as it is for anyone else...and I will go. I'm not perfect. I can't always show how to be good from example. But I can love. I can learn. I want to be more like Jesus in every way...and to do that...I have to follow the life He lived...

Karate Chop To the Brain...

Hello lovelies! It's been too long. Is anybody out there anymore? Oops! I may have lost my following. That's ok. If you dug my craziness before...perhaps you'll be back?

Well, a quick update on the job sittuation...I had two jobs one week (St. Lukes included), and then the next week they both told me they made a mix-up (before I even started working)...one decided that they wanted someone with medical experience, and the other accidentally over-hired. Egad. This 'finding work' business is harder than it looks! I promise I'm not even holding out for a management position...

So...I'm jobless. Again...er...still. Jobless and needing some change. But what can you possibly change when you have no money to change things with? Your hair, of course. I usually cut my own hair and my husband's hair and random friends'/relatives' hair. But I needed a major change. I just needed to chop it all off. So...I asked my husband if he could cut the harder-to-reach-places...AND HE ENDED UP DOING MY ENTIRE HAIR STYLE. With much council from me, of course[:

I think he did a fabulous job and I am definitely proud of him.

I have some exciting news that I will post later tonight or tomorrow. I don't want to make this a run-on blog entry...Thanks for coming back and reading, friends!
