heya ya'll ^_^;; so yeah, the title pretty much says it, I've been felt called to do missions *especialy in Asia* for awhile now and I feel like this is where God wants me to start, it's to Peru, and I have absoloutly NO CLUE when we're leaving, I just know I'm going XD;; I've tried fighting God about me becoming a missionary somtimes. . . I keep losing *wow, imagine that* I have absoloutly NO SKILLS for becoming a missionary, I'm shy around people I don't know well, I HATEHATEHATEHATEHATE public speaking, and well. . . you get the point, so I could really use some prayer for being able to let myself be a tool for God ^_^;; oh! and even though I'm not really woried about it, it wouldn't hurt to pray for the money I need to actually go there, I don't know how I'm gonna' get it, but I will somehow. Thank ya'll ^_^

If you are called, He will take care of any problems. I dislike using sayings, but "God doesn't call the qualified, He qualify's the called." Praying for you.

Hey, God can still use you even if you are shy and quiet; He may find something that you can do without public speaking, etc. Just trust in God and He'll show you his way. And it's a brave thing to do missions work! I'll pray. :thumb:

wow. Heh, yeah. Going into missions can be pretty scary. The Enemy will try all he can to screw you up, most often by making you scared. Fear not! keep praying, and be sure to remember that we are praying for you!

seriously hope you have an absolutely awesome experience, just open your mouth and let God speak through you.

^^ - some important Spanish phrases include:

Me llamo -your name here- = lit. i call myself...; my name is ....
-or-
Me nombre es - your name here- = my name is...

Donde está el cuarto del baño? = where's the bathroom?

Tengo -insert number here- años = lit. i have ... years; i'm ... years old

Jesus (pronounced hay-sus)

Dios = God

Biblia = Bible
