Summary

My drive to serve comes directly from God, trying to learn how to balance personal drive and God's will. Learning how to serve in the capacity that the Lord wills. Wether I serve with the children or even on yall's maintenance crew, or grounds keepers, whatever God wants of me this summer, that is what I am after. He has taught me so much and is continuing to teach me daily, experiencing true joy, experiencing peace in all circumstances, and most importantly trusting the Lord with every ounce he gives me to do it with.
