So before training camp I can honestly say I did not know what to think or feel about The World Race, I had little knowledge of the impact God is making and going to make through this team and through myself. Not only now do semi-understand but I am more prepared to allow God to conquer me and use my life as a tool only for His glory. Training camp was a ten day experience of the following: past scars being healed , forgiveness of self and others, restoration of God given life, rededications to submitting fully to the Kingdom, further understanding Christ and his unfailing love for his people, friendships and bonds that will never fray, feeling the Holy Spirit erupt inside of us, supernatural powers being flown through us, Jesus came alive to me and all of my teammates… we will not be the same.
God used those ten days to reveal power in the most glorious way. My mind still cannot comprehend his majesty. I know I will spend a lifetime allowing Him to glorify himself through me. I am nothing but a tool to bring him glory. To the desolate ends of the earth He created I will speak of his beauty and love. That’s why I am here, that’s the purpose of life. To freely give to all as he has so freely given to me.
I do not want the best life now. I do not want to serve the things of this world that will surely become dust in the wind. I will submit to the things unseen, and keep my treasures for heavenly things. What will last? What will not? What will matter tomorrow? What will matter when I am standing before the King of Hosts? Am I being controlled by the things of this world? Does my mind rest in the materials that could be destroyed by a kiss from God? Am I becoming less and less so He will become more?
Not only will I know Jesus, but I will spend my days allowing Him to know me.
