My calling!

So I was watching 20/20 last night (yes I like old people shows) and it was all on making change around the world and it was AMAZING!!!  All the information can be found on www.saveone.net  So the point of the show was to show people around the world who are doing things to change the world.  Some are small and you would never know about them if they weren't on the show but they are all HUGE and we can all be apart of it. 

Some college students came up with a wrap for new born babies who are to small to balance their body temperatures and it keeps them warm with wax and water.  You heat them up and then in goes in a pocket and you wrap the baby in the wrap.  It keeps the baby warm for 4 hours!  How cool is that?

Another one was talking about the children and people in Guatemala who are stunted bc they don't get the nutrition they need as babies to keep growing.  So they have come up with this peanut butter like substance and you give it to babies each day and it provides them with all the vitamins and minerals they need to grow.  How cool is that?  Just a lil bit of peanut buttery stuff can save lives or improves lives!  AMAZING!!!

I love to watch these stories because it makes me feel not so helpless.  I can help from where I am and make a difference around the world without having to face my fear of flying over water!  hehe  This website has all these stories on it plus more and gives you sooo many options for helping. 

I have decided that this is my calling in life!  It is to be used by God to make a difference around the world and here in Greeley of course by doing small things.  I may never see the difference first hand but I know that villages and children are able to live better because I chose to not be selfish or materialistic and pour out his love.  This is where my heart is and we are all God's people so nobody should be left out.  I know we have a lot of work to be done here in the Greeley and in the US but every little bit counts and I feel that God is bigger than this and he can use me in all places at once!

What an AMAZING GOD we have to give me such love for people I don't know!  People may not understand the love I feel but GOD knows and that's all that matters!
