My Bio
“The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.” -Lao Tzu
About a year and a half ago I made a decision, that one step if you will, that changed my life. I said yes to the Lord and his calling on my life. And now every day I live in the FULLNESS he has created me to be. I am serving the kingdom and I am letting God write my story.
In January 2008 I was at the point where I couldn’t live the way I was anymore. I loved the Lord but I was going through the motions with my walk. I felt like I was trapped in a mediocre life with an unfulfilling job, a complacent life, and many surface area relationships. I felt like I was drowning. But then the Lord kept placing missions on my heart. But there was NO way I was going to mission work. The Lord had other plans for me.
I found out about the World Race (jessicamiller.theworldrace.org) through the internet. 11 countries in 11 months, who couldn’t resist that? Well me. I signed up and before I could even think about it it was time for me to leave. In July 2008 I packed my bags and headed around the world.
God changed my life. He broke off the dead parts of me, who I thought I was, and spoke life over me. He showed me my true identity in him and empowered me to go out into the world and love others. I got to see so much of the world. I saw prostitution in Asia, got to hold orphans all over the world, watch people fight for their lives that had AIDS in Africa, and worked to protect children from sex trafficking in Eastern Europe. I saw the PAIN of the world but I also saw the HOPE only Christ can bring.
13But everything exposed by the light becomes visible, 14for it is light that makes everything visible. This is why it is said:
“Wake up, O sleeper,
rise from the dead,
and Christ will shine on you.”
-Ephesians 5:13-14
