my struggle..

i've been feeling lately that i need to back into singing at church. i took a hiatus from it about a year ago, which was a very good thing for my to do. there was just so much going on, and i had to step down from something.

i've been helping in nursery for a couple months now, and we wear a bright orange shirt if we work with children so it's easier for the parents and other staff. 

and this last weekend i was struggling with that because i've never been one to want to stand out, and i heard an audible voice in my head tell me i was made to stand out. 

that with the gift of my voice, and the gift of my compassion for other people, and the gift of my passion for children.. there are so many ways that i can impact my community. 

so i need to find a way to get around my insecurities and step out of my little box. i was not meant to me a wallflower, i was made to stand out. 

so this is my newest struggle. :) 

ironically, my new job is helping with this. ;) 

just goes to show God always knows what He is doing when He puts you in certain situations. Always trust Him to make a good decision for you. ;)
