Where am I going in life

So, I have been here in Cambridge for the last 6 months & I've come to realize that this country is extemely neat to live in, yet extremely cold during the winter & has a type of pride about it. The people here are nice (at least at my church), but humanity over all is just a face that passes you by. When you walk down the street, I seem like I'm always getting sized up. I want to move somewhere that I can feel at home & feel warm love all around me when I walk through the town center. I want to move somewhere where I feel like people know who I am & where I feel like I'm making a difference.

Which is why I'm joining the Peace Corps.

I feel like the Peace Corps will give me the ability to use my skills (environmental education) to better someone elses community & maybe the world. If I move somewhere that is a place where alot of tourist come, then I could possibly teach the indigenous people the proper skills used to better their environment, so when the tourist come to that place, it will still be beautiful & natural.

The greater question I have for myself is what am I destined to do? What gifts has God given me that I can use to better this world? What do I have passion for & how can I use it?

I think I have been given the gifts of teaching & working with children. Which is why I think I might have to go back to school oneday to get my teaching degree & teach overseas somewhere. Maybe Australia? If I could make a difference to one person, especially a child, then I would feel like my life was not a complete loss. Maybe I could teach a child english in a foreign country & they could become the next president of that country.

My friend Karisha just moved to Bulgaria to be a missionary. She says that this is her destiny. This is what she was created for. She has the passion to go there & disciple young teens to draw them closer to God & to help street kids get off drugs/drinking. I think I have a similar passion in life, but in Australia. I believe that my passion/gifts that God has given me are for me to use to help teen/young people draw closer to our Lord Savior Jesus in Australia, through YFC. Maybe even doing an adventure type program where you take a group out into the outback for 2 weeks & have daily prayer/bible meetings, while taking them white water rafting/hiking/absailing/rock climbing. Showing them that it is possible to face not only the fears of this world, but the fears that are unseen also (like death & where you go afterwards).

Am I certain about this career choice? No, I'm not sure, but I will continually keep searching for my destiny/job in life, and know who is holding my lamp.
