Luke 9:23
23Then he said to them all: “If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.
Sometimes I really think I am crazy to be leaving for a year on The World Race. Who dose this? Who just drops everything, packs a backpack with mainly nothing.
To tell you the truth at this point where I am at right now it is not about the countries I am going to visit, or the people that I will bring to God’s kingdom. It is beyond that! Beyond what I could describe. I hunger for something deeper then what the world has to offer. I don’t want the best job, newest car, latest gadgets, anything that the American dream has to offers. I hunger for you Lord because you are my rock and glory. I want to follow you!
Now that I have less then 3 days before I embark on this new journey and I don’t really have any expectations. I don’t want to have any because I know it is going to blow me away beyond what I can understand. I will never be the SAME! I know that I will be BROKEN to the point I will only be able to depend on God for his strength to keep me going.
I have decided to pick up my cross and follow him where ever he leads me. This is truly my desire to be closer to God in everything I do. I know I am God’s child and his plans are perfect.
I know this is where I belong. Now I have found where God wants me at this time in my life. Now I am finally where I belong! Anywhere God follows me is HOME.
