I have been back home from California since the 25th of July, and it has definitely been a major adjustment to step into this season of preparing for the world race! I went from an intensive 6 week Iris school where we had a full schedule everyday and also started and ended each day with worship. It was such an amazing experience I will treasure the transformation and every one of my brothers and sisters I got to know at that school. I couldn’t imagine my life without attending that school, I am so happy I listened to the Holy Spirit and applied last minute to be able to attend. The last two weeks back at home have been pretty intense. I am trying to find the balance of working full time at my job, working out to be physically fit for the world race, and of course making time in the secret place with Jesus. I am actually typing this from my prayer closet! haha. I have raised 529 dollars so far which is amazing I know that I have a 5,000 dollar dead line at the end of September, so somedays the enemy likes to try to get in my head but I just keep singing out praises to daddy God every time any worry or doubt tries to creep in my head! I love to sing “Do it again” because he truly does make a way when there is no way! I have seen him do it before and I have faith I will continuously see him do it again and again for the rest of my life. Daddy God has been speaking to me a lot through rainbows lately. I have had visions of rainbows and I prophetically painted a picture of a rainbow, and then at work this week it began to down pour then the sun game out and sure enough, there was a beautiful rainbow over looking the ocean at the restaurant I work at! When I saw the rainbow I heard him say to me “All my promises are yes and amen.” 
I know that he was confirming his promise to me to provide for this mission trip! Also the Holy Spirit brought to my attention that in the word fundraising Is the word ”FUN” so I am brainstorming fun ways to partner with daddy God to raise money, it can be discouraging with my work schedule since I don’t have much free time, but I am learning that all things are truly possible with christ who strengthens me. I am learning how to manage my time better by surrendering my free time to the holy spirit. I am learning that pressing in even when I don’t feel like doing something is what empowers grace to fall on what i’m doing. it’s just like working out, I don’t always feel like it but once I put my running shoes on and pray and start running then i’m flooded with energy from the Holy Spirit and I can complete what my flesh was trying to distract me from doing! I am learning that sometimes its not the enemy that our big problem is because he has already been defeated, it’s our flesh sometimes and we just have to partner with the holy spirit and press in to be led more by the spirit and thats when Christ within us can make the impossible possible! I would love prayers please during this time of fundraising, working, and letting daddy God prepare my heart for this mission trip! If you would love to partner with me and Daddy God on this trip and donate it means the world to me! Thank you for reading my second blog ever! I pray that daddy God blesses you with his heavenly presence today. Love y’all
