Identity




Transition. I am in the middle of of a pretty large transitional phase in my life. In the past things have been pretty defined for me. I go to school, I work at camp. School is what I do and camp is my ministry. I don't work at camp anymore. I always knew this day would come but now as a 23 year old entering the workforce (hopefully soon!) what does my ministry look like? I have made steps towards helping the childrens ministry at my church. I LOVE working in the fashion industry and being part of that family but I don't ever want that to be my identity. First and foremost I want my identity to be that of being a child of God. God doesn't give you deadlines, doesn't send you bills so it is a little easier to put Him in the backseat and not make Him part of your daily routine. I don't read my Bible everyday. I don't have the urgency that I wish I had. Its an exciting slash very terrifying time in my life. I could potentially hit my dreams or I could potentially hit the bottom in the coming months. If you are reading this, could you pray for me? I need it.
