You mission, Rhonda McAnulty, if you choose...
Yes! YES! I will go where you want. I will do what you ask. I will praise you with my whole heart, with my life. WHATEVER you ask God.
"UMM, wait, uhh, I wasn't planning on THIS, God. I was thinking more like a paid trip around the world or to become famous or to save LIVES!"
So my thoughts so very long ago. Today, today I kept thinking about my mission [field]. Where am I suppose to go, what am I suppose to do? Who will I impact today?? And so, it was a pretty eventful day, except for a wonderful date day with my husband and volunteering at my daughter's 1st grade class. :) This was incredible! I got to see little minds working and, and. I was touched. I heard a testimony. I am inspired. I read a blog, a man whose wife had breast cancer. HIS journey. Also incredible, and still I wondered about my mission!
Laundry? Dishes? Dinner? Kids? Carpool?
My son a week or so ago, told me about a paper he had to write, who his hero/s are. He said my mom cause she fought cancer 3 times and won. And my dad, cause he takes me fishing and likes to spend time with me and talk.
I am a hero? I AM A HERO!
I told him, "Son, you are the hero. I don't know many 14 year olds who go through what you've been through. It wasn't just me who fought cancer. It was you, Olivia and Elizabeth who fought with me."
"Yeah, but we didn't help much around the house" his answer was. "What? You didn't have to. You're suppose to be a kid. You're suppose to enjoy this part of your life! He smiles. He smiles that smile that is his father's. The smile I fell in love with. Wow, what a mission!
Now, as I sit here, my mission is...all of the above. My mission, my mission is my kids and one day they will travel the world or become famous or save LIVES or just be. Just be. A listener. A talker. A reader. A writer. A mom. A dad. A survivor. A hero. (Wait they already are!)
Love you, love me, love you, love me!
