Wow. These past few months have been crazy. At the start, support raising $17,700 seemed like an impossible task- like something that was super far out of reach. The thing is, God is greater than $17,700.
He called me into the World Race to begin with, so there’s no way he would take it away from me. One time I heard someone say “If it’s His will, then it’s His bill” and I really like that because I know He’s not just going to leave me hanging.
I’ve been learning so much about God’s character through support raising and to be honest, I feel like the race has already started. I can already feel my character changing. God’s faithfulness is unthinkable. I can trust Him without a second thought. I know that my strength and courage is coming from Him. Once I finally let go of the worry and frustration of such a daunting amount of money, that’s when I saw the money start coming in the most. If I do what I can on my end, God starts blessing me from His end.
I’m no longer scared that I’m “not going to raise enough” because I know that I will. It’s more exciting now just to see who and where it comes from. I no longer get discouraged from a “not this time” I just move on with a smile and wonder if God chose the next person to be one of my supporters. Now that I finally let go of the control in this situation, God is orchestrating a very fun, lighthearted, and exciting time fundraising.
I owe a huge thank you to everyone who’s been part of this journey so far, and I can’t wait to continue adding people to both my prayer and financial support teams.
