O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever. —Psalms 106:1
In May I graduated from college, so this past year I've really been grateful for a clear sense of divine direction. I've always known exactly what I've wanted to do and have kind of been driven by human will. But I just got to the point this past year where I was affirming that my job was to serve God. As I prayed that way, the human will fell away, and I was totally open to what God wanted me to do. That's when it became clear to me what I should be doing: This month I leave for West Africa with the Peace Corps.
