Hi all!! Welcome to the most clear picture I can paint for you (through my computer screen, of course) of my life. I have absolutely no idea how to blog, so bear with me as I learn as I go. Still, thanks so much for checking my page out!!
My name is Megan Staten and I am 18 years old. I grew up in a small town in North Florida called Lake City, where I have lived my whole life with my wonderful parents and sister, Madison. I have three dogs whom I adore, their names are Mackey who we call Mr.Mack, Dodger, also known as Lil’ Dodge, and my favorite (is that wrong?), Chico who I refer to as Cheeks. Some of my hobbies include swimming, spending time with family and friends, as well as journaling, and yes, even working at a local bank with a couple good friends. I have a heart for missions and worship, and a passion for serving that I cannot wait to put to use.
I was raised in church and have been saved for the majority of my life, as I accepted Jesus as my “Lord and Savior” at a young age. Little did I know then, but for most of my life, Jesus was ONLY my Savior. If you asked me then if I loved Jesus, I would have told you “of course!”, and I wouldn’t have been lying. However, I have recently come to understand that loving someone is in direct proportion with how well you know the person. I am learning intimacy with the Father and what a life surrendered to my LORD looks like, and am learning that my ultimate goal is not to go to heaven when I die, but to bring heaven to earth while I live by sharing the Good News.
The World Race seemed like a dream for a long time, even after I heard the Lord declare this over me, but He is faithful and so good, never failing and always, ALWAYS keeps His promises.
So, here I am, taking the first steps into what I know will be the scariest yet most fulfilling adventure I have yet to go on. I can’t wait to share this journey with all of you! Thank you in advance for your partnership with me, by giving as the Lord leads, and praying without ceasing.
In Him,
Megan 🙂
