Hello Hello and Happy Valentine's Day,
I know I've been M.I.A. for a while. I've been struggling with some things, but (I don't always say things like this), but God has been revealing and doing some serious work within me to prepare for this journey. I am trying to balance time and figure how to communicate the stories and issues to you. So, this is a "what's coming out soon" teaser on upcoming blog posts I'm working on. Numero uno…
- a fun yet serious post on 11 Reasons Why the World Race is the Perfect… I don't spoil wanna it
- How I Almost Missed Out on the Holy Spirit Providing/Blessing Me with $200 toward the Race when I was unknowingly resistant (this happened last November. Sorry for the lateness)
- And definitely a detailed Fundraising Update and upcoming WR Financial deadlines starting in March. It has been a while, but I am still doing the World Race! I am currently at $1,995 (just gotta make it over that $2,000 hump!) with fundraising since I last looked at my account. I have not been looking at it often because I get extremely disappointed and frustrated when it has remained the same (last month anyway), but trust me, I will be looking at it soon. I've recently stopped viewing it several times on a daily basis.
In other news, I am still trying to put together a World Race newsletter to mail and email to keep you updated on my progress, prayer requests and what is happening with the WR as I'm preparing to launch in July. Please hang tight for that. All that formatting on Microsoft Word and trying out MailChimp is difficult to figure out. It's times like this I desperately wish I was born a graphic designer.
Thank you very much for being patient with me as I've been trying to refocus spiritually, emotionally and mentally, getting all my ducks in a row with God's mercy, grace and guidance of course. I truly appreciate your support.
P.S. Leave a comment, tweet, like and/or share my blog posts. It's really encouraging to know someone is reading this, and getting something out of it (if you hopefully are). Moreover, please feel free to send me a message or email me [email protected] and let me know what you want me to blog about or just any concerns or simply to correspond with one another. This blog is for you! My supporters, family, friends, acquaintances, future Racers, squadmates and future teammates. Let me know what you need and want to read in this space. I'm trying the best I can to make the posts informative, authentic and hopefully humorous. Laughing is good for the soul, right?
P.P.S. As of now, I only have one monthly donor. Praise God for real. That is a major commitment for you to take on but crazy absolutely appreciated! This is one of my many WR prayers to Pops…for more monthly donors whether is $25 for 6 months or $100 for 3 months. Whatever the Lord puts on your heart.
Of course, you can always make a one-time donation by clicking here! Your donations, support and encouragement is ALWAYS appreciated, and I'm beyond grateful and pray that God blesses you for stepping out in faith for what you and I will be doing on the WR starting now and at launch in July!
Here's the latest Scripture He's teaching me: John 15. The story about Jesus being the vine and me (and you) the branch. Making my home in Him as He does and has in me. Below is a prophetic Scripture given to me last September (actually almost a year ago too. Maybe He's tryin' to tell me something) that I stand on especially when I swerve off the path Pops directs for me or even when I feel aimless, lost, confused and uncertain. Matt 6.33. Maybe it will help you if you're feeling the same…
Until next time.
