My heart (mi corazón)

Today as I wandered throughout the first part of my day I realized a few things. 1. There is so much I want to do! ---- I have a heart for the environment and desire to be actively involved in the act of stewardship of the great planet we have been given charge by God to take care of. It is also part of my character to be active and enjoy the ability to run and compete in athletics, namely soccer. I further have a burning passion to help the poor and misfortunate. I love the Hispanic people and feel a real call to be involved in God's movement in the hearts of our nations immigrants that have been so harshly rejected by a "God led" country. And finally I have to be diligent in my studies as they are- as much as I sometimes don't recognize it- a blessing from God. I must work hard at my studies and be attentive as the gift of attending a major university is not a opportunity that many have. And with this I must use my gifts to aid those who have less than I. Not to mention the love I have for working at my local coffee shop with my fellow baristas. I love our conversations and friendships and hold them very close to my heart (Coffea Island rocks baby!).

But I have only 24 hours in a day and I need a few hours for sleep. This leaves me with a dilemma- how do I spend my time? God I pray you would lead me in wise time management so as t best serve You! And God may this lead to an increased impact on the world around me! I pray people may be touched by Your faith WITH works in me. I pray that people be blessed and touched by my words now. I pray for a change- in Christ Jesus, Amen.
