Although preparations can be stressful, I am looking to rely fully on the Lord and all He’s called for me. I know the Lord will work through this and I keep asking Him to help me do something uncomfortable, help me to step out in faith to know You will be there to catch me as I fall, and I have and He’s caught me, every time, without fail.
Sometimes my thoughts can be jumbled and my mind goes on a wrong path, but He grounds me and gives my heart clarity and passion. Sometimes I’ve gotten distracted and focused on myself and my preparations. But, more and more I’m seeing that this Race and this journey isn’t just for me. It’s for so much more, it affects so many more and goes beyond what I can see. And my eyes are being open to all of. And it is humbling. And I am so thankful.
I keep thinking of that Brandon Heath song- “Give me your eyes”
“Give me your eyes for just one second,
give me your eyes so I can see,
everything that I’ve been missing.”
