So many beautiful things have happened during these past two weeks. There was a time in Gainesville, Georgia for the leadership team (me) & then a “launch” period where the squad came together, said their goodbyes & prepared their hearts & minds to go on this amazing 11 month World Race.
here’s a couple things the Lord has spoken over this time for me & my team, the Swirl Girls !! (spoken to me through time spent with Him, trust worthy friends & things around me that have drawn my attention & stirred up my spirit)
•Get ready to start getting more
•Enjoy the switchbacks
•Strength !! for me as a leader
•2 Corinthians 12:9
I cannot help but walk around so full & honored to be carrying out this wonderful task. To continually choose people is a beautiful thing and choosing LOVE is hefty. It takes thick skin, a solid poker face & trust in a good God to lead.
So that’s where i’m at 🙂 learning to walk in those things & telling people who the heck they are.
This whole thing is also so very nostalgic for me & my race. I remember waiting to board the first flight from ATL, Georgia to head to our first country, the Philippines. I was sitting at our gate & a new friend from my squad looked me in the eyes & challenged me. They told me who I was in a way that required more out of me & made me see myself differently because they saw things in me that I didn’t see in myself.
& that is just one part of this really sweet thing that I get to do- telling people who they are & helping them break off who they aren’t.
SO
Pretty please pray for me & my team 🙂 We are going to a predominately Muslim country to share the message of Jesus Christ. Pray for life changes, discernment, wisdom & good stories. I wanna tell the type of stories that cause you to run along & share them with your friends & co workers because they so clearly testify to the character of God.
THANK YOU FOR READING!!
Talk to you soon & don’t forget to breathe out there.
