academic unrest

(academic unrest...as promised)



i am trying really hard to be content here at tech, but i'm not feeling it anymore. i wonder what's up? i mean i'm hanging in there, but i feel like a square peg in a round hole right now. to add to that, at church sunday a youth minister who was doing missions in new york city with New Hope New York (www.newhopenewyork.com) came and talked to us and what not. he was just saying if any of us felt moved to give up a year or a semester or a spring break and come up to new york and do missions work (big city. very low percentage of christians) then we could talk to him about this opportunity. they call it the 'leadership journey.' so i'm sitting there thinking for real? this may be the missions trip God has been waiting for me to go on...or maybe that's where I need to complete my education as an undergraduate. i would jump at the chance to go..its just that NO ONE else has my stupid major (as far as universities go) and I would miss my family terribly. Plus, I'm so close to finishing here at tech, why postpone it...i don't know though. the thought of possibly going to nyu or columbia university and doing God's work is really appealing to me, so if you're reading this right now, pray for me. pray that i will be able to clearly hear what it is that God is telling me to do and that I will have the faith and courage to obey Him.
