What It’s not about Me?!

Sitting in my car, holding my phone, smiling ear to ear, overjoyed and shock at the words that I heard…”You have been accepted to join the World Race.” …Yes!

As I was driving home, my mind was racing… ( I am going to raise this money all by myself…I am going to do this for God… I am going to travel… I am going to make a difference). Then He stopped me in my tracks. He said “Young Lady this trip is not about you. It is about Me and how I will use you and your flaws to lead others to me. You alone cannot do this. You need Me and you need those that I have place and will place in your life.”

In my Stubbornness I did not want to hear it. I wanted to do things my way. I continued to work, work, and work. I got to the point where I got so busy and tired that I didn’t want to hang out with anyone or do anything. I basically just wanted to hide in my room.

After taking a couple steps back (very important to do sometimes) I saw my error, I saw my pride, I saw my false thinking. How was I showing God’s Love with a tired, worn out, just plain fake smile. I needed a break, I need His help.

Slowly I am learning to let go and let him work. I know He will use this trip to bring many to Him. My part is to Trust and Obey.
