Since I was accepted on the race, it has been a lot of wondering what will happen. The closer it gets the more real it becomes and the more I realize I have no idea what to expect.
As the race is approaching I am thinking of all I’m leaving behind, worldly things, comfort and the community I know. I am leaving what I know to be normal, friends, roads, culture, schedules, pretty much everything.
I am going desiring to be apart of God's plan, also to grow closer to Him and allow Him to work through me. To let God move and put my whole hearted trust in Him and Him alone. God will work in the world, and with my squad with or without me, I know this. I want to be apart of it though, and its been a burden on my heart, to go, (And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.” NASB Mark 16:15).
So on the race I’m expecting, to grow closer to God to see the kingdom in a whole new way. To have a better idea for where God wants me. I have no idea what that may be or where I will be when I come back after the race. I do believe though that God will show me things and mold me into the person He wants me to be.
I guess I’m also expecting
-
to eat odd things
-
lack of sleep
-
experience amazing worship
-
see life in a whole new way
I can't wait to see what God will do and where he will take me, there is so much uncertainty and unknown. I am alright with that though, cause I know allowing him to take me where he wants is how I can allow him to mold me.
