Four months have passed since the beginning of The World Race and many changes have occurred since the beginning of this wild adventure. I have been in a different country each month with each one being located in a different place across the globe. I have laughed and cried with a group of 6 beautiful people that I have grown to consider family. I have felt the Lord change me and develop me to have much more dependency upon Him.
Over these past few months I have been so blessed to be able to be part of so much incredible ministry. From sharing the Gospel with people that have never heard it before to praying for healing for people in a hospital, I have been able to see God move in my life and the lives of others in incredible ways. I have witnessed several people come to faith in Christ, I made good friends, and I have loved those who others do not love.
God has taught me so much through all of these experiences that he has brought me through. I have learned more reliance upon him. I have learned how to hear him more when he speaks. I have learned greater humility. Above all though I have learned how God is involved in all situations. He is involved in my life and he is involved in yours. He is sovereign over all things and we are blessed to be apart of his plans for the lives around us.
The greatest experience I have had over the past four months though has been the relationships I have had with my team. Team Oaks, the team I have been with this whole time, has truly become family to me. Each member of the team has challenged and encouraged me to not only be a better person but also to seek God with all of my heart. God has been more than gracious to me to allow me to have these people to be in community with.
I am so thankful for the time I have had with Team Oaks but now is a time of new beginnings. God has bigger plans than just our team. He has bigger plans than what I can imagine or what anyone on my team can imagine. As such God has called me to leave team Oaks and to lead a new team of people in seeking after God on this wild adventure we call the World race.
We call ourselves Relentless Light. Why? We are relentless in our spread of the kingdom. We are relentless in our pursuit of God. We are relentless in spreading the light of the Gospel everywhere we go.
God has plans for team Relentless Light and I know above all things that these plans are great. As a team we are praying and expecting God to use us in incredible ways. We are expecting him to move in us in power. We are expecting God to use us in great ways. We are expecting God to spread the light of his gospel through us to all nations so that all men may know that there is one God and one Lord above heaven and earth, above all things in the physical and the spiritual realms, above you and above me, and, most of all, above all the combined power of man and the dark forces of this world.
Our God is above all of these things and we as a team and a body of believers are his Relentless Light!
