When I was a kid a missionary visited our church. The stories he told and the way he spoke....I was captivated.
From that point on I wanted to be a missionary.
In my kid mind that meant traveling to foreign countries and living out in the bush in a shack.
As an adult, I see that the key part of being a missionary is having a heart to help others.
While I don't travel much or live in a shack, I DO have a heart to help others do better, be better, and ultimately LIVE better lives.
Do I preach at all the people I meet?
No!
But I do my best to live in a way that shows others there's something more worth living for.
In that way I'm more and more every day realizing my childhood dream of becoming a missionary.
What was your childhood dream?
