Take me, take me to the riot...

I honestly think I might fail beginnings because I keep forgetting to blog...I've missed out on two so far--that's not good. Let me recap what I haven't blogged about in the last two weeks...

1) Women's issues: I'm not happy with how I look, what girl really is...But I guess I'm content in it, because I'm certainly far too lazy to change anything. It's just something I'm going to have to live with, and as long as I feel confident (which I do) then I'm fine.

2)Genocide/Racism: Now thinking about this just makes me angry. These problems are things that our gradparents should of had to deal with, not us. I will never understand why a peson's hertiage is a final judgement of who they are, and why that should be taken into account when you meet them. Who cares? What makes people become so full of hate towards people who are different? Where did they go wrong?

And now this week's actual blog: Global Vision.
I am so excited to be at APU where I'm provided with so many global ministry opportunities, and I plan on taking full advantage of that. I have no idea where God is calling me to go, but I really want to find out. Though, I am the first to admit, I'm going to have a tough time being outside of the US, especially in third-world countries. I would love to go on missions trips in France, but I know that might just be me chickening out. But I will tell you, France needs just as much help as Mexico, or Africa. And on that note, why not different places in America? Who says I need to go global, when Louisiana is suffering just as Mexico is, or even as close as San Diego? Don't get me wrong, I want to experience all new cultures--that's how I'm wired, I want to travel and be a part of something new. But I don't think it's right to say that we HAVE to go global with our ministry.
