I feel as if God is calling me to leave the comfortable life I’m settled into and become a nomad for Him.
My parents are not saved, they want me to get married and have kids and get some 9-5 job. I’m a quiet sort of person. I’ve somehow settled into a role where everyone is my friend, I serve them in anyway, but no one expects me to do anything big. I told my pastor and his wife that I’d love to go on the Campus Target mission for nine months and all he said was,”That’s really long…” as if I’m just not that type of person to do something like that.

It’s not the expectations or lack there of from others, or some selfish need for freedom. I don’t want to “prove them wrong” or escape from the boredom. I feel like God is using all of this among other things to gear me towards getting out of my safe zone and get out there in the world.

Here’s my problem: I have very little money and a not-so-great job. I don’t have any college credits. I have artistic skills and I love to write and do photography. I was thinking I could get out into the world and spread the gospel. Maybe when God calls me back home I could write a book about everything and use that as a form of ministry. But I don’t know where to go from here, or how to go about it.
