I can't believe it, I am halfway through the World Race. To be honest, I thought this day would never come. Now that it's here, I feel like it came way too soon. I look around at the village I am living in and am heartbroken at the thought of leaving this life. I am used to things like running as fast as I can to the outhouse squatty potty so the jackals don't eat me, not having a grocery store in sight, eating the same meal 3 times a day everyday, walking 3 hours to share the gospel, living out of a backpack, doing feedback with my team every day, taking bucket showers, and holding random children in my arms.
The thought of going home scares me. Which is kind of a blessing.
In India, my control freak kicked in and I started attempting to map out my future. While it may not have been a bad thing, it wasn't beneficial for the season I am in now. I realized that if I am looking forward, I am not fully present where I'm at.
I am over halfway done with the race. It flew by. I can only imagine how fast the next half will go. So, I want to soak up every second. I want to be completely present. I want to give everything I have to Christ and these nations. I want to go home regretting nothing.
I am so incredibly blessed to be here. I have met so many amazing people. I have gotten to witness God do miraculous things across the world. I know my own life has changed drastically.
Thank you, to all of my supporters and prayer warriors that helped me get here!
Please continue to pray for Nepal.
Pray that the 50,000 girls sexually trafficked, in Kathmandu alone, would find Hope.
Pray safety and courage over our brothers and sisters in Christ. Only 1.8% of Nepalese people are Christian and they are extremely persecuted for their faith.
Pray that the 10 year old girls being forced to marry, would find protection and love in the arms of Jesus.
Pray that the people being led astray by false gods, would find Truth.
Pray that people bound by the chains of addictions, would find Freedom.
Pray that the family struggling to survive, would find the Provider.
Pray for my squad, the other missionaries, and the pastors of Nepal. That God would guide all of our steps and that we would be a light in the midst of all the darkness.
P.s. Dinosaurs do still exist…
