an overview-
As many of you probably know last week, I made my way to training camp for the world race. While I was gone, I met some of the most amazing people and experienced God in a whole new way. However, one thing I felt God so clearly speak to me was to go home. I found this confusing, I mean I’ve spent the last year of my life preparing for this, why go home now? God’s voice became clearer and clearer that He was calling me to a ministry at home. I was disappointed, I mean I was preparing to leave the country for 9 months and serve all over the world and now God wants me home. But the more I prayed about it the more peace and more comfort the Lord gave me. So, I am home, and I am not going on the World Race: Gap Year 2019. But I want to be clear this is not me running away from missions and God. This is me following Him even when I’d honestly much rather still be at training camp. This is not easy. It still hurts and I know that September 7th is going to sting a bit. However, I know that this is God’s plan for me and that His plan is greater than anything I could ever come up with. To my squad- I am going to miss you guys, but God has the most mind-blowing things in store for you guys and God is going to work through you guys to CHANGE LIVES! I love you guys and I can’t wait to hear about all the amazing things to come! To my supporters- I cannot put into words how extremely grateful I am for every single one of you guys. You make my heart sooo happy and I am forever grateful for all the love you guys gave me! To the World Race- This is just a goodbye, for now, I know God called me to the world race and He has promised me in time I will be back.
All my love,
Emily
