Listen to an audio recording of this blog post here:
Heavenly Father,
My children’s hearts are yours. I know this. You know this. They desire to follow you wherever you lead them.
Lord, you know that when I was a teenager I strongly felt your call to global missions. I sought that path but it never materialized–not in the way I envisioned, anyway. I married and became a mom to our three children. I served my personal mission field as best I knew how through my family, church, and community. Although I was convinced of your calling, the desire of my heart for foreign missions remained a longing unfulfilled.
