The Beginning

Where do I begin with the amazing things the Lord is doing in my life. Attending college at Colorado Christian University has been a very unique and regarding experience. Besides being held accountable by amazing people in my life to grow closer to the Lord, I am experiencing my faith in new ways. One way imparticular is to finally hear God calling me a certain direction in my life. Back in October a group called the Dalit Freedom Network came and spoke to my class about an issue that truly broke my heart. I heard about the Dalit people or untouchables and how they are being persecuted due to the detrimental Caste system in India. The Dalit people are the most highly targeted for modern day slavery, human trafficing, and sexual exploitation. My heart broke for these people and I truly wanted to make a difference. I continued to pray about an opportunity to come available and by God's work I was offered a medical internship in Hyderabad, India for the summer of 2011. I will be gone May 22-July 6. I just bought my plane ticket last night and I couldn't be more amazed to see how the Lord is pulling this whole trip together. I do not have any expectations for this trip. I know the Lord will reveal things to me I could never prepare for. I want him to break my heart for what breaks his...In return I want to brake the chains that bind the Dalits to their detrimental lifestyle, but I also want to set myself free from lives burdens that are holding me back from living all for God. This trip is not about me, but about the work that the Lord wants to do though me. My prayer is that he uses me in a beautiful way to serve my brothers and sisters in Christ. That I am humbled before Him and feel truly blessed for what I have and where I am from. I know when my life is tough...there is always worse in other places. Lord set me FREE! Let me live my life for you and your purpose!
