But what happens when you don't assume? What happens when you embark on what is probably one of the greatest journeys of your life and you attempt to make no assumptions about what will happen? You end up with your mind blown in another country, experiencing God's love is what seems will be most likely to me.
From what I already know about the World Race, I'm attempting to have few expectations of events that will happen to me, but more about personal changes and actions, so that I have no choice but to follow where I am led, instead of trying to create or mold events to my expectations. But needless to say, there are some things I have in my head, and we'll see how accurate they are when I'm 8 months down the road and I'm actually departed for the Race.
- I fully expect to LOVE LOVE LOVE on people. If I do nothing else on this journey, I pray I do this.
- I know God is going to blow my mind and obliterate my current perpective and put it back together in a new and holy way.
- Days or months of eating the same foods, or similar.
- Continuing my current trend of living out of my backpack and having fewer showers than our society prefers.
- Times where I am overwhelmed and confused.
- Sites and smells that will be incomprehensible to me.
- A new me at the end, with my visions and goals polished and refined by the Father.
- Missing my family and family of friends from home.
- Embarassment from personal ignorance.
- And to LOVE some more!
Overall I pray that I come out of the World Race a true MAN of God who hasd stepped into the role I was meant to step into and am living up to Yaweh's expectations of me. I want to be someone who holds up to the tattoo that says Be Love on my chest and embody love. I want to be broken for what God breaks for, and to be moved by the things God is moved for. I want to end my worldly visions and have Heavenly visions. I want to return with better discernment of what God is telling me, and to have a better ability to pray and speak prophetically.
Be Love.
