That's exactly what I was doing, CB1. I told her I hope she feels better, didn't I? I included a smiley and everything. I'm not going to apologize to her for being truthful.

God's truth and your truth are on different sides of destiny.

Rhoni, if you want to become a missionary because you are bored and don't like life in the USA, knock yourself out. I've been honest and truthful with you on this issue. Next time you start a thread I will remember that you're not really interested in people being honest with you, but are more interested in people patting you on the back and telling you how good you are. I'll invent some lie to make you happy and post that instead of what my true opinion may be.

Re: The REASON I want to be a missionary...

I don't get what having a secular degree has to do with other people being honest with the OP. I'm sure that many of us are degreed in varying fields. And all of us who do possess degrees can prove it. I read the whole thread, but I'll admit I am still confused about the "secular education" remarks from the OP.

I feel a change coming but don't know how, when, or where...but it's coming.
Rhoni,

Wouldn't it be better if you do God's will rather than your will?

Rhoni wants to be a missionary for the wrong reasons and if she did do it, would most probably fail. The only way that it would not fail is if she is doing God's will rather than her own.

I understand.....I truly believe it would be hard enough to be a missionary even in God's will. ALOT of sacrifices I have seen!

Sister Alvear has experience in being a missionary and from what she has posted, there are a lot of sacrifices to be made. I also think that there would also be a lot of benefits to being a missionary too. Now, I would never want to do this or any other type of ministry like this, but God has a calling for me that hasn't came to pass yet, and I believe that it will be very soon though.
