And They're Off!

OK, so this one is deeper than most. I promise not to do this very often.
We had a great sermon at church on Sunday. It wasn't totally focused on scripture, but still made a powerful point. The funny thing is that the point it made led to me thinking about other stuff and ultimately "taking home" something different than what was said. I felt like a horse penned up in the starting gates though. I know there is a race ahead of me- to be a missionary, but not sure when God will shoot the starting gun to signal when to go. I have a long way to go to be totally ready and equipped to do this, but I love that the fire and motivation is still so raw and powerful. I hope I can hold onto this feeling for a long time. To sum it up, I will borrow a quote from the sermon:
C.T. Studd said, "Some wish to live within chime of church or chapel bell. I want to run a rescue-shop within a yard of hell."
