The last few weeks have been astounding. God has been teaching me in new ways, what it is to be humbled.
As I walked off the stage from worship and down the center isle of my church sanctuary, a woman came up to me… through her tears, she said to me, “Thank you.”
At first I was confused, but then she began to explain.
She explained to me that no one had ever told her that she could go and be the hands and feet of Jesus around the world… and because of me, she was now ABLE to answer the call and desire she had on her heart for so many years. She went on to tell me that by supporting me financially, she felt as though it was her way of going. So she thanked me again and said, “Now, you go for me.. and for all of us who can’t.”
After saying goodbye to her and walking away, my heart was hit by a TON of bricks. In an instant I had been completely humbled by the Lord and His ministry through me. He showed me that even my support-raising was a ministry! That through it, I would be inviting people to be a part of something that is bigger than even me and my trip. I was inviting people to partner with God’s heart for the nations; God’s heart to seek justice for the injustices of this world.
I believe that the Lord is asking me to share this part of my life with everyone, so that HE can be glorified and so that through me, others will gain a heart for the things that break HIS heart.
I am in awe of how the Lord is using my life. I am completely humbled in knowing that I get to be a part of inviting others to minister and be ministered to.
Jesus said in Matthew chapter 10 to feed the hungry, heal the sick, cast out demons, and freely give just as you have been given to… and if that’s what Jesus said.. then that’s what we should do!
I believe that God wants me to involve the BODY of Christ in this process… I NEED your support: financially, emotionally, and prayerfully.
If you want to learn more about what I’m doing.. or how you can help and be a part of it with me, please comment below or CONTACT ME (even if I don’t know you!).
Learn to do good! Seek justice, encourage the oppressed. Defend the cause of the fatherless, plead the case of the widow. Isaiah 1:17
