During this debrief, I was appointed as the new team leader
for Team Transformed. Not qualified, by any means, but chosen for this season.
Honestly speaking, I was quite reluctant to be the leader, because it meant
more responsibilities, but I knew it was time to step up. My biggest prayer
going into it is that God will give me a heart for my teammates. In Kenya, when
we were challenged to really lift each other up in prayers, I tried, but it was
such a struggle because I did not have a heart for them. And I know that as a
team leader you have to cover your teammates in prayers. So I told God that:
Hey, You put me in this position. You have to give me a heart for my teammates,
to want to lift them up in prayers.
It’s funny though, looking back at my time in Uganda last
month, that it was by no accident prayer was so on my heart and it was a month
of really pushing myself in praying. It was also no accident that I had such a
burden and desire to pour into Ronnie, in fact still praying over him
constantly despite having left Uganda already. It was the first time in my life
that somebody is so heavy on my heart that I constantly want to pray over for.
God was gearing me up for this month for my teammates.
I know that this is just a step to the things God is going
to call me to in the future. May I be faithful in the little things before He
gives me the big things.
Matt 25:23
23 “The master said, ‘Well done, my good and
faithful servant. You have been faithful in handling this small amount, so now
I will give you many more responsibilities. Let’s celebrate together!’
