In the past 3 months, I've really slacked off from preparing for my Race. I haven't posted anything or done much support raising. Ask me why and I may tell you "I don't know." Honestly I don't know. I have done a few things here and there…talk to Sunday school groups, sell a couple hundred dollars worth of bracelets, but have I really done anything? No. I guess I just really hoped money would just show up in my account. WRONG!!! Then there has been a debate of whether or not to change routes, and this, and that. All excuses, all motivated by fear. Fear of what if this isn't what God wants for me? What if this is all in my head? What if….what if…what if. I look back and now realize that those things aren't of God. He put the desire in my heart to pursue The World Race. He called me into action and place my desires and hopes on hold. And it is He who will provide for me to do His Will. In the last 3 months I've been taking 3 summer classes, i've been to Guatemala on a medical mission trip, GLOW camp with children from my church (Go Light Our World), and Camp INTENSITY with the youth from my church. No more excuses. Time to get down to business and trust and KNOW that God will provide. I'm not going to lock Him in a box and limit Him, but instead i'm going to step out of my comfort zone and "DO WORK." I'm a child of the One True LIVING GOD and whatever I do in HIM, I will have victory over it!! So if you're in a place like me right now, GET OUT OF IT!!! First the creepy snake has no dominion over us. We have been set free from ALL bondage and slavery, and we are no longer subject to sin. So get up, walk in the light, and let your light shine before all men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your FATHER in Heaven! And when in doubt,
Joshua 1:7-9
7 “Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go. 8 Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful. 9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.”
