Me and My Hearts Desire

My name is Paige. I am 17 years old. I am in High school and i am trying to become a firm follower of Christ. Its going to be a long journey and im not ready, but knowing Christ is my one desire in life. I want to be consumed in him and nothing else. I know that i am nothing without him and can do no good without him.(Romans 7) (and i must constantly be reminded of this) God has layed a heart for missions within me and i am currently trying to understand want he has planned for me in the near future. I have know for as long as i can remeber that i was made to be an international missionary. I am a rare kid of girl. I hate make-up and dresses and doing my nails and all that juck. I have been this way since birth and will be till the day i die. I hate spending money on my self or my family, strangly i want to live on bare minimum so that i can rely on Christ for everything i need and only what i need. I consider my strong opinions to be gifts of God... I view every thought i have as either a step towards christ or a step away.

The only thing holding me back from full time missions right now is my age and the fact that i am only a junior in high school... oh and my parents. As far as parents go though, i know God will handle there hearts in the way he needs to to prepare them for his will on my life.

My blog is called An Eye for the Broken Soul for two main reasons. One being that i whole heartedly believe that God gave me a gift for searching out and leading the hurting to him. Secondly i myself have had my share of doubts (and still do)and i refer to my life as one big Broken Moment, not because i am still broken, but because Christ heals my Broken Soul everyday.
