Good Day

I went to Missions Fest today. I intended to be there for only a short little while so I could get back home to do homework, but one of these days I will actually act on the realization that it takes me forever to do anything. This is especially true when it comes to running into so many people that I know and want to catch up with. At almost every booth I stopped at, I either knew the presenter or the presenters knew someone that I know. Same with random people I came across. Needless to say, I did a lot of visiting! There's never enough time to truly catch up though...in any circumstance.

This year I went to Missions Fest with a purpose: to find out the role of OT in missions as well as find out what organizations had openings for OTs. Surprisingly, there was quite a bit. So now the question is: am I going to do this, Lord? And if so, where? It's kind of exciting to me to be thinking about this because I sort of put it on the back-log for so long. It never seemed like it could possibly be reality. And now it's completely possible!

And the afternoon wasn't just about meeting people and finding out information. Two presenters stopped and offered to pray for me, and then proceeded to pray for things that were really pertinent to me. That was a blessing! And a good reminder to not stop praying for people around me.

There was also a huge contrast that stuck out to me. There's such a stark difference between that atmosphere and others I see in or around my life. There was so much blessing, so much love, and so much purpose. I don't mean this in a sappy, nostalgic non-thinking way at all, but in an absolutely truthful way... It was beautiful! Being there was like being in light...
