What does Jesus really want from me?
On my time here on the World Race, I have had to think about how Jesus wants to use me. Is it in serving, teaching, healing, or speaking encouragement to others? These are many things that I have thought about and prayed about. Is there one or is there a couple of those things that God wants me to step out in faith and do.
Serving: I have done this for years. It comes natural for me to get up and serve people that need it or don't need it. I think God has giving me a good heart for serving. So, maybe this is not the one the God has for me to step out in. Maybe I need to let people serve me when I feel that I can do it for myself.
Teaching: This one is a little harder for me to do when it comes to the Bible. This could be a step out of faith that I just listen to God and say what He is telling me. This trip could help me learn how to step out and speak what God is telling me. I might not know the Bible in and out, like some other people, but if I am willing to speak truth that God has given me, then I could make a change.
Healing: This one I am not the comfortable with. Many Christians have a problem with healing. I would say that I am at a stage where I think that it is okay. With the countries that I am going to I can see how the Holy Spirit can use healing to bring people to Him. I feel that if you are doing it for the purpose of the Holy Spirit. But I think that it could get out of hand in which people are doing for the wrong reason.
Speaking Encouragement: When I think about this I think everyone should be able to do this. I need to improve in this area. There are times where I don't speak very good words into people. There is a part of maturing, both physically and spiritually, where I need to grow in. To the World Race people this is prophecy. I never thought about it in that way. So this has stretched my faith out.
