When I grow up!

So lately I have been looking at my life and not sure what I want to be when I grow up.  I have soo many friends that have always had a dream to be either a teacher, a baker, a vet, a nurse.  I on the other hand have no dreams of what I want to do. 

I spent a lot of time looking at the things I love in life and the things that bring me joy but have realized that non can really be something like a career.  I love to volunteer as you all should know by now.  I love to read, hang out, help people, be in the background of events and I like to sew.  When I look at a lot of these things, I think to myself, well I can't very well become a professional reader now can I? hehe  But of all the things I like to do, I do like to sew and that is something I can actually move forward with.  I can sew stuff for people and be helping at the same time.

So my new goal is to learn how to sew.  I am in the process of looking for someone who teaches sewing classes because I would like to sew all kinds of things but just need to learn how.  I have ideas in my head but when I actually try them, will they work they way I think they will?  Prob not hehe and I will end up with shirts with 2 arms holes and no head hole or a shirt with no holes at all!  So I think I need to learn to sew first.

I have so many ideas as to how I can use this as a ministry and an outreach and so this is going to become my passion.  When both my kids are in school, I know that I will be very busy using this for God's Glory and sharing his love as much as I can.

I may not have a college degree, (I know right now that a degree is def not in my future), but I do know that when I follow where God leads me, I'm happy and fulfilled!  That is my goal for my life and God will take care of the rest.
