Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel. As you go, preach this message: "The kingdom of heaven is NEAR." Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. FREELY YOU HAVE RECEIVED, FREELY GIVE. Do not take along any gold or silver or copper in your belts; take no bag for the journey, or extra tunic, or sandals or a staff, for the worker is worth his keep.

Matthew 10:6-10

Hello EVERYONE!

I'm Megan Lee, or Megan, whatever works for you works for me! I'm from Las Vegas, NV and I'm 21 years young. I turned 21 in April and Oh man, it's a whole new world! I was born and raised here. Vegas may be corrupt but it's home :) I live with my mum and 4lb bundle of joy Aiden (shown above). He is my bestest friend in the wholllle world. The Lord truly blessed me when this little guy came into my life.

As for basic background info, I'm currently enrolled in school and have yet to decide on a major. I would consider myself slightly awkward and random. I believe the Lord has an AWESOME plan for me but haven't figure out what that is just yet. Because of my beliefs, I have always been a little bit of an outcast amongst my peers. Vegas is made up of Mormon (whom I love) and nonbelievers (who think I'm nuts but I still love lol) and that makes it difficult to find a solid group of friends. That is why I am SUPER EXCITED to spend 4 months with people that think God is just as mind blowing as I do :)

As for my faith and how I ended up writing this blog: I grew up in a strict Christian home so I always knew God and went to church but as far as having a REAL relationship with Him and not branching off of my mothers, that didn't happen until I was about 18. In my early teen years I rebelled against just about everything and made some mistakes but with the help of my Heavenly Father, I snapped out of that nonsense and made a major change (thankfully)! I am now CRAZY IN LOVE with God, my faith, my bible, and the idea of doing mission work. Every day is a struggle but I know that God is ALWAYS on my side and will catch me when I fall. He has picked me up at my lowest and held me through my darkest times. He is truly the foundation of my life and the only thing that brings me to tears. There are moments that I look back on and think to myself, "the only reason I made it through that was because of my Father. How do people not see that? How do they not believe?" Simply thinking about that leaves me speechless.. I guess that's a good thing because this blog is getting a little lengthy lol

Final thought: I am so excited to meet all of you! Reading your blogs has inspired and comforted me. You all seem so incredibly amazing! What a group God has created :) I'm praying for you all individually and as a group <3
