Hey friends and family!
I’m in a weird place currently. I’m going to try to describe it to you…
We have hit the middle of the Race, 5 1/2 months away from home and actually as I write this I have only a little more than 4 1/2 months left on the Race. For all those people that felt like this year would be super long, let me tell you… IT FLIES BY SO, SO FAST!
As fast as this time is flying by, as much as I am “leaning in” to the Race, as much as am taking time to have my quiet time with the Lord, I feel like I just can’t keep up. It feels impossible to have an endurance that simply never quits and takes in every single second of this journey. I can’t imagine how Paul did it!
While on the road we do 5 or 6 days of ministry, but the goal is to do 5 days of ministry, 1 day of adventure where we enjoy the people, explore the culture, and explore the area, and on the other day, we have a sabbath. Oh! How I am so great full for the Sabbath Day. Even still I feel like I can’t keep up!
Believe it or not, I have 22 titles saved in my journal to write into and share with you as blogs. 7 of of them already have the first draft written. Yet, I feel like there is so much more to tell you, so much more the Holy Spirit is telling me, so much more to reflect on, so much more… and it is frustrating that I can’t keep up!
Even still I must say this is the best decision I think I have ever made in my life!
I won’t mistake my blues as a sign of a failure or inability. Instead, I am blue because I don’t want this beginning to end. I have always known that this thing called the World Race is only a starting point to the adventure of my purpose in Him. There is so much beauty in this beginning that I want to savor it so bad and I hope that I am savoring it well. And if, I miss something I know that the Holy Spirit has my back.
So what the heck am I trying to tell you?!?
That’s a question…
Let me see…
Ask the Holy Spirit… What’s the biggest thing that is out of your comfort zone? Go sign up to do it. Follow through. Trust the Holy Spirit. Go live in your purpose that He created you for.
It will change your life.
And most importantly, it will develop your relationship with Holy Spirit. That makes it all worth it.
It has changed my life.
So much so that my blues are good; that my bad days are good days; that the hardest things are my best lessons; that not being able to keep up is good because I’m not missing a moment with Him.
I love all of you and know that I miss you. Know that I pray for you… Know that you are motivation… Know that your prayers are felt… Know that are hearts connected through our Savior and Lord.
On this amazing weekend where we get to celebrate the gift that God has given us, pray that He will take you on a journey that will bring you closer to Him; to take full advantage of that gift that He has given us; do something that is so amazing that you have to rely on the Holy Spirit to have your back to make your blues worth every second…
