Choosing to Follow Jesus Every Day
If you were to ask me at eight years old, “what will your life be like as an adult?” I would have said “a dance teacher, veterinarian or a flight attendant.”
Well, here I am many years later and although my occupation isn’t one of these, my passions and gifting are still the same. I was a dance major in college and now I am a fitness instructor. I still love animals and our first “child” was our golden retriever, Nala.
I love to travel, so vacations and holidays are always spent on the road.

In Psalms, God tells us that we are “fearfully and wonderfully made.” In Jeremiah, God tells us “He has a plan to give us hope and a future.”
As a child, I had no idea what God would do with a girl who loved people, loved hard work, had a big personality yet was vastly insecure. Thankfully, God had a plan. He took this ball of unfocused uniqueness and set her on a path that she would have never thought possible.
In 1 Samuel, we meet a shepherd boy named David. The youngest of eight boys and to those looking from the outside, he was the least likely to be used for mighty things. But God was at work. He put David in situations that would sharpen his skills, solidify his trust in the Lord and prepare him for God-size tasks.
Romans 9:17 says “For this very PURPOSE I raised you up, to demonstrate my power in you and that my name might be proclaimed through out the whole earth.”
If we allow Him, God will do the same with us! How exciting that our God has crafted each one of us with specific gifts, passions and abilities that can be used for His kingdom work.
