Picking up my baseball glove and heading to 2nd base

There has been a yearning in my soul for something more for the past few months. I find it a very safe place to be where I am. I've never really thought about it, I really like to play it safe. In high school I was quite different. I spent 2 1/2 months in Mexico travelling all over the country as a nanny with a singing evangelistic group.  The uncertainties in the travels were exhilarating! Then my junior year of college I spent the summer in Colorado where I knew no one going in and was a finance intern for a ministry; knowing nothing about finance. I know this is not living on the edge, but I took risks and loved every minute of them. The trip to Mexico changed my life and I'm still realizing how much there was to glean from that experience.

I just read a friend's blog and while I am no where near experiencing the uncertainties they are experiencing, I feel God is trying to tell me to move to second base when I would rather just stay in left field.  I really have no idea where this second base is going to take me, but I'm trying to get the courage to get my glove and get out there.
