Hey everyone! It’s been a week since I got back from training camp and I’m still soaking everything in. God moved in miraculous ways in those 10 days and I’m excited to share.
Coming into training camp I started to feel overwhelmed about everything. From what if I felt like the WR was a mistake, what if I don’t connect with my squad, and tons of other lies from the enemy. Upon arriving in ATL, it was nice to meet everyone I’ve been communicating with over the past 7 months. When we reached the Adventures headquarters it was such a heavy feeling on my soul. It was a jumbled mix of emotions of nervousness, excitement, worry, and anxiousness. This was the 1st step of what I’ve been working so hard fundraising for to get to yet I had so much fear about what’s to come for the next 9 days. During worship I wrestled with God by trying to focus on praising Him and being worried out of my mind about what I just got myself into. When we finally came to the song “You Make Me Brave” a rush of comfort came over my spirit.
“For You make me brave
You make me brave
You call me out beyond the shore into the waves
For You make me brave
You make me brave
No fear can hinder now the promises You made”
Over the course of next days I started to rest in the fact that I was called to the World Race for a reason and I need to step boldly into this next step of my life.These next 11 months my squad and I will be constantly be called to lay down our lives in order to show the Gospel to others. We’ve learned to have a “yes” spirit over this next year to whatever God has called us to do.
Yes to
Things that may not make sense
Things that may not be in our comfort zones
Things that terrify us
Situations that seems like there can’t be a way
YES to whatever it takes to bring God glory!

I’ve been blessed with 31 new brothers and sisters to do life with these next 11 months and I’ll be introducing them over the course of the journey but I want to introduce my amazing team, Team Unshakable, that I’ll be doing ministry with.
