Inspirational change

Today I went to a church in the fifth ward (Houston, TX) and it was the most amazing experience ever. Everyone was up clapping, dancing and praising God. Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if they sang till their voices ran out. Then suddenly, the pastor comes up and asks a few to come up to the altar to pray for those in Haiti, and just about everyone in the room fled to the front.

That just made me think, I used to help others. I used to volunteer anywhere I could. I loved helping and making a difference in someone else's life. I remember when I was 15, I went to a Christian Conference and I was completely inspired to go on a missionary out of the country.

And now, I wonder what happened to that girl? Just that one experience changed my view on my current lifestyle. Insane, huh? But that's just the work of God in my life. I'm grateful that he provides for me as much as he can and now it's my turn to provide for someone else.
