Global Awareness Conference

As much fun as I had at the company offsite these past few nights, tonight's Global Awareness Conference at my church reminded me of how empty all of that is compared to the joy and fulfillment of worshipping God (this isn't limited to just singing and such) with my brothers and sisters!

I don't know if it was the awesome worship team that set the tone, or listening to our guest missionary's sharing and challenge, but it felt so great and uplifting to be in God's presence with a community of believers.

On a totally random note, I had a great time acting in our play tonight. The latent ham in me loves acting, I guess. =)

God's timing amazes me. Recently, I started getting tempted by the desire to settle into a comfortable, complacent life. I thought about buying a house, and even started questioning the importance of me finding a significant other whom shared my beliefs.

Tonight brought me back to reality, and reminded me of the promise I made to faithfully serve God. Perhaps He'll still call me to serve in the local community, but I know that it's my faithfulness and desire to serve and worship God that matters the most. If my future significant other doesn't understand that, if she can't accept that perhaps we (I) may be called to some unreached area of the world... then we'll both be unhappy, so what's the point?
