I have
less than two weeks before my feet hit American soil. WOW!
What an amazing year it has been.
I just wanted to share what is going on in my head as my time on the
World Race comes to an end.
My thoughts are a mix of
anticipation to see people back home and awe of what I have been able to do
this year. When I heard about the race about four years ago, I thought to
myself “that is awesome for other people but I would never be able to do
that.” Now I am completing something I
never thought I could or would do. Yeah,
I may feel a little sense of accomplishment but really though, I recognize I wouldn’t
be here without the overwhelming love my Father has for me and the support of
people back home.
I
search my heart for even the slightest bit of sadness in closing this chapter
of my life, and I can’t find it. Saying
goodbye to people that have walked through real stuff with me is going to be a
challenge and still sadness does not color my vision. I recognize the amazing things the Lord has
done and know He is not done yet. I don’t
have a plan in place, I don’t know what He might call me to next and for now I
am ok with that. After this year I see
and trust that He does have plans for each one of us, plans to prosper us and
give us a future. So for now I pray and
wait on His spirit to lead and know He has only more for me. What I do know for sure is that He will
continue to lead me into greater depths of His heart and understanding. I am super excited for that!
So, as
the whirlwind of life continues around me, the close of one chapter and the
start of a new I feel His spirit around me saying PEACE. With all the uncertainty around me I can’t
help but rest in His arms of peace. I am
grateful for the beautiful people of “O” squad that have loved me so well this
year. I am excited to be back home and
hug the people I love so much.
America see you soon!
