One month left….
29 days of this adventure before it ends. 29 days until the next season begins. And 29 days to give it my absolute all. One month to go out strong believing with everything in me that we have time to make a change. We have time here to still reach more people, to create impact, to have effect, and to make the Lord proud.
One month left to stop being afraid of going home. To get out of the mindset that the next season will not be as beautiful as this one or not as full of the spirit. 29 days to start believing that God is not only walking with me now, but he will be in a day, and in a month, and in year.
One month left to pray for remembrance of everything I have learned and grown in over the past 8 months. A month to prepare my heart for leaving these people and this community. A month to prepare myself for the next big change.
One month, to get excited. To start overlooking fear and doubt, and to strive for joy and optimism. Enough time to focus on the truth, that my God did not give me a spirit of fear but of courage. I am strong and full of life. I am firm in faith and steadfast in knowing who I was born to be. 29 days to open my heart and stop shutting the spirit out of what I have not yet experienced.
God is good. He is faithful. I am confident that I am about to see a whole new level of goodness from Him. He hears my prayers, He knows the song I sing to Him through how I strive to live, and He’s got me. He loves, and He serves, and He pours out mercy after mercy after mercy. What right do I have to hold doubt for a God who has been faithful through every. single. moment.
Prayers for the end of the race, for saying goodbye to teammates who I have lived with for 8 months going on 9. Prayers for love and happiness. I want to be where my feet are, soak up every single beautiful moment and conversation, and I really want to make this month count. I’m finishing this season strong so I can start the next one even stronger. Prayers for endurance, and for an open heart willing to receive the guidance and comfort that I really need.
Thanks for reading:)
