It’s the world race, stuff is always happening. Changes always going on and you can’t do a darn thing about it. We switched teams again but this time it was different. No hesitations maybe a little nervous but ready for whatever God had planned next. I’m on a co-ed team. This is very different from my previous teams getting use to living with women the past 4 months. It’s amazing that this is the set up for this season of my race because I know God is working in my heart to view men differently. I’ve been hurt a lot by men in my past and I normally want nothing to do with them and assume their motives for the worse. I had a mindset that most men are tools.. Not true. I’ve actually met some amazing men of God on my trip and God has been redeeming that issue on men in my life and I’ve been able to view the men I serve with as brothers in Christ. In the past that would’ve been really hard for me to do but you know God is doing something to my heart since January 9th 2014!
Having men around we get to talk about life getting a new perspective on how things are viewed. Learning to be open and honest by being healthy and breaking down walls that were put up from my past. Learning to trust the wisdom a man brings to the table. It’s so awesome to let them see me, Margaret the goofy, no make up on, hair barely brushed, wear the same clothes 3 days in a row, hey it’s the world race, Margaret! Being myself the one God created and intended for me to be. That’s what Gods been showing me the past two months, be yourself! The one I created.
It’s only been a few days with the men on my team but I am so excited because I do have a lot to learn from these guys. God has really been awesome in giving me lessons in the perfect times in my life. Not one month has gone by and been wasted. Each month has been a new lesson that changed my heart.
