As I reflect over the past few weeks and try to see into the next two, I see grace. Grace helped me through, and grace will take me through. These past weeks have been hectic in every way, but I am continually amazed at the way that my Father works things out, if I just allow Him. It’s not necessary that I live stressed out and worried. What a miserable way of life that is.
In less than TWO WEEKS is training camp! I can scarcely believe it. It was so far away when I first applied that I could hardly think that far! However, it steadily crept up like things always do. I have most of my gear and am excited to have gotten to try most of it out already. It makes it feel more real whenever I stuff everything into my pack and try it on. I literally feel like a turtle with that pack on my back. It was said that it’s difficult to tell who is carrying who: that pack is carrying me or me the pack! When I wear both packs I’ll probably look like a sandwich.
I have been VERY blessed to reach my first big fundraise goal. Thank you so much to everyone of you who have given financially and have supported my sales. I can’t do this without you all. My next big goal is in December. I am due a total of $10,000 in my account by then. I am not afraid, because I have already seen the mysterious ways that God works. Truly, sometimes He has sent money from the most unlikeliest of people.
As I work toward my next goal, may I ask you to prayerfully consider supporting my mission monetarily? I know that money is not a “spiritual” way to support me, but it is a very practically and extremely important aspect in this whole World Race. This is what enables me to “go and be”. My desire is to be Jesus to every person He allows me to touch. I do not take for granted this privilege of being chosen by Him to go. By your support, may you also be blessed and rewarded for sowing seeds for the Kingdom harvest.
