Why I became an SPO Missionary

The simple answer is that God called me to be a Missionary. Before my senior in college at Benedictine the idea of being a missionary was just that, a nice thought in my head. When I went to SPO training for their internship going into my senior year I was transformed. I came in with a desire to grow in community and experience more of household, and I came away with the desire to transform people's lives through living on mission. I did not come up with that desire on my own, but God instilled it in me. It just seems like God has prepared my heart throughout my four years at college to have an easy yes to mission. If it seems like He is pulling me in this direction. then who am I to tell Him no!
