Welcome to my Blog!

I am OFFICIALLY a WORLD RACER!

….WHAT.

I still do not think it has hit me yet that I am about to embark on this journey.  If you would have told me two years ago that I will graduate college in May 2015 and decide to take a year off to go on the World Race before physical therapy school, I would have thought you were out of your mind.  

 

Believe me, I have asked God, “Why me?” It would be so much more socially acceptable to do what I originally was planning on doing after I obtained my undergraduate degree.  I was already discussing where I wanted to apply for physical therapy school.  I was imagining all of the different cities and places I could live in the United States where I could have a good living and be comfortable.

But all along, I was missing the real point.

Life isn’t all about me. And life isn’t about being comfortable.

In the past 6 months, God has been dramatically changing the desires of my heart and has made me realize that His plan for me is far greater than I could ever imagine.  Surrendering my life to Christ is what gives me life and that’s how I want to live.

“I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me.  The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.”

Galatians 2:20

 

I know this journey isn’t going to be easy.  Satan is already attacking my weaknesses and coming at me from every angle.  I know that I will be broken to the point of wanting to quit.  But God is faithful and He is my strength in my weakness.

“That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties.  For when I am weak, then I am strong.”

2 Corinthians 12:10
