For some time now I’ve had the desire to go on the World race… But why?
Ever since God called me to Himself He has given me the calling to save lives. At first this calling was full of open doors, Doctor, lawyer, EMT, Youth Pastor, Camp Director, and so many more ideas all flooded my head. But as I matured God begin to narrow the list, I cannot just save lives temporarily but I must also strive to save lives for eternity. As I wrestled with ideas and the realization the sitting behind a desk will never be for me i felt led into missions work.
So why the Race?
Put simply I desire to save lives, both physically and spiritually through the help of Christ. I hope that through the world race I might discover a country where I am suited for full time missions work. But along the way I can serve people, love on the forgotten, heal the broken, and bring the hope of the saving power of Christ into lives.
Yes it is a bit crazy to leave all the comforts of America, warm showers, soft bed, overwhelming amounts of food, a beautiful home, WiFi everywhere I go.
But the question is…
If giving up all that, if giving up everything you have would save one person’s life would you do it?
So why the Race?
The answer is simple, to save lives. Regardless of adversity. Ill give up everything if only to save one.
This is why I chose the Race
