For once in my entire 21 years of living I can’t really recall ever looking back on a previous year feeling more content than I felt coming into 2015. I left 2014 behind with happiness and joy. It was a growing year and I am defiantly grateful for what God showed me last year. I experienced life in 2014 in ways that I have never been able to experience before. As grateful as I am for 2014 I am more than excited for this new year, 2015. I get to use what God taught me in 2014 to share the indescribably amazing grace of His love with those around the world. I was called on the World Race 6 months ago and now in a little over 6 months I will finally be embarking on that journey in July. A year will have passed to when launch arrives in July from the moment I felt led to go on the World Race. I will look back over the months that lead up to that moment the way I am looking back at 2014 in this moment. I will see moments of joy, moments of sadness, moments of contentment, moments of adventure, and moments of confusion. In looking back on those moments though I will be grateful, but I will also be ready. I will be ready for the 11 months that stand ahead of me, just as I am ready now to take on 2015 and learn what God has to teach me this year. Everything just seems so real now that it is 2015. The World Race doesn’t seem so far away and I know July will be here before I can even blink. My prayer is that in the next 6 months God will reveal things to me about myself that I have never realized that will prepare me for the 11 months I am going to be away. I am so excited for this journey and can’t wait to see all the amazing things that are going to happen this year for my squad and I! God is going to do great, amazing things and it’s going to be beautiful.
Things are getting real now with leaving and fundraising is daunting, but I know Who is in control and He will provide. I have already reached the first deadline of $3,500, which is awesome! I have sent out support letters and have received some support, I thank everyone so much who has supported me so far in this journey and can’t wait to keep you all updated on what God does on this journey! I ask that if you have yet to support me that you would prayerfully consider what ways you could possibly support me, whether that be through prayer, a financial donation, or a monthly financial donation. Any thing helps and even if its just an ear to listen to my moments of panic, I will be ever grateful. Thanks so much for taking the time to read my blog and I will update sometime soon!
