I'm too young, it's too dangerous!

For those who will eventually read this blog, here is a little note.

I am 19, I'll be 20 at the end of this month. I'm going to Amsterdam. Where there are people that are trafficked, drugs are legal, prostitution is legal, and Europeans drink a lot of alcohol. Some may see danger, danger, stranger danger. But I see a city, no a country, who needs the Lord. As every city and country does. But should I shy away from God's calling, because God forbid, I might be a little uncomfortable? That maybe there might be difficult and hard situations? No!

If I'm where I'm supposed to be, according to God, I don't care about safety, I don't care if I am in the most ghetto place in the world. God is bigger than any danger there could possibly ever be. I'm not saying I'm going to be stupid and put myself in bad situations, I am saying that I'm not going to be stupid. God has called me to Amsterdam, I am not afraid. What I know, is I have a passion, and a heart for these girls, for these men, for those pimps, for this city. I want to tell these girls that someone cares about them, that they are not alone, and even though it seems hopeless, and they have gone so far from where they thought they would be, that it will one day be okay. That one day, they will look back and see God's hand on them throughout their lives. And that they are worth more than what a man will pay for them. The are worth so much more, because they are loved by God. The only one that really matters. That is my passion, my hope, and dream for these girls.

Some may think I am too young.

I am young. But in the bible it says; Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity. 1 Timothy 4:12

And it also says in Jeremiah, "Do not say I am only a child, you must go to everyone I say to, and say whatever I command you." Jeremiah 1:7

To those who think I am too young, should I wait a few years? Should I go to a college to prepare me? Have you heard of God equipping the called, not calling the equiped? What do you think will prepare me better, than the most high God?

Anyways, just a little note, not meant to offend, just a tad frustrated.
