Wow.. Where do I start with all that has happened in the last few months.
4 years ago I would have never imagined being in this spot. After traveling to Belize on two separate occasions, totaling about 2 months in country, I sensed the Lord tugging on my heart and calling me to something greater than just small town living. He was asking me to trust him for a longer period of time. Through the time I spent teaching in inner city Chicago at an alternative high school, God really began to open my heart and mind to the idea of missions. That is when I heard about the World Race through AIM (Adventures in Missions).
I have applied to the world race once before, while I was still in college. After a few months of praying over the application, I made the decision to withdraw my application because I knew it was not the right time. Now here I am buying gear and raising money to hop on a plane for a year. So I guess in simpler terms, I am stepping out of the boat… I am standing out in the middle of the water yelling “Here I am Lord, Send Me”.
