Resolve, with a pinch of joy and a dash of freedom

I want more of You in my life.
I want more of You at UIC.
I want more of You at Cornerstone and Beloved.
I want more of You in Chicago.
I want more of You in KC, Pittsburgh, and St. Louis.
I want more of You in all the nations.
(That escalated quickly)
 
Also I got to see my first shooting star out in the middle of a hay field on a pure Wisconsin night. Wasn't what I expected, as I thought it was a firework at first.

"While ton of Christians in the other parts of the world are wondering about whether they will be persecuted tomorrow or not (or how will they be persecuted), and here I am, sitting in a warm apartment, with a bowl of food in front of me and worry about what if I cant find a job in future, or if i could find a job that I want..."

 Or the right relationships in life.

God, why did you put me here in comfortable America, and what am I supposed to do about it?

Awareness?
Prayer?
Action?
Drop everything and go somewhere dangerous for the Gospel?
Or humility and grace and love?

What is enough? Can I even do anything at all?
