"To Those Whom Much Is Given ...

... Much Is Expected."

I think I got that right.

In any case, you get the point.

Since you are blessed by God, you are called to be a blessing to others. You are called to serve others. I have been thinking about this "quote" for a bit now. I know it is true for me in my calling to help raise awareness about CHD, as well as funding for research. I have been blessed with a beautiful, funny, charming little boy. A little boy born with a special heart. And because of this, I am able to help others through telling our story, being a support, raising money for research and creating awareness about CHD. I am blessed because I have my son, he is with me, and I know far too many families who have had to send their sons and daughters home to Jesus far too soon. God has a purpose for my son, and it is my duty to help him realize what his purpose is on this earth as a child and a young adult. To help form him into the man he will become. This is quite an expectation, overwhelming at times, but it is a gift. I am blessed with a faithful and loving husband, a strong support system, good friends and a loving family. Truly, much is expected of someone such as me, someone who is so incredibly blessed.

I know my calling will evolve as time goes on, right now it's to be a faithful and loving wife - a good partner for my husband, a strong and loving mother to my son, a good sister, daughter, friend and family member. My greatest calling is that of wife and mother, but I have many others as you can see. I am still on my own journey and will be until the day God calls me home. God has a purpose for all of us...what is he calling you to do, to be?
