I got an email a few days ago that I’ve officially been committed to the race for about a month now. I’m only 2 months from training camp and a little over 4 months until I leave for the Race.
I was talking with a friend on our way to the Portland airport about the race, what’s been exciting and hard in the journey so far. I was talking about how hard it has been for me in this fundraising season of life. I don’t like asking others for money, I just wish that I could just pay for it all myself. $17,000 is a lot of money it just seems impossible in moments.
Doubting. The thoughts race through my mind “What if I don’t reach the first deadline? What if I don’t reach the second deadline? Will I have enough extra money for all the gear I still need to buy?”
She opened my eyes to the fact that there’s a reason why I cant do it all on my own, it would leave no room to lean on God for all of it.
Let your faith be bigger than your fear.
Don’t be in a hurry to leave Gods presence. Slow down. Let Him empower you. He has so much to show you, to teach you, and to tell you.
This is just the beginning of a whole new season of trusting in the Lord in ways I never thought I would. He is preparing my heart and mind for a journey of experiences I can only get through with Him.
Always live expectant of God, He will never disappoint.
Thanks for reading friends,
peace and blessings
