Life is nothing but a vapor and I want to leave a legacy of love everywhere I go.
Today I joyfully get to announce that I will be going on the World Race, an 11 month mission trip that goes to 11 different countries.
Starting this October I will be living out of my backpack and sleeping in a tent as I travel from country to country being the hands and feet of Jesus. Saying no to comfort, I am saying yes to this call placed on my life. Therefore I am chasing after the dreams that God has given me and going with love.
I am eager to embrace sex trafficking victims, play with orphans, feed the starving, sit in the dirt with the poor, spend time with widows, welcome refugees, love the marginalized, and pray for the sick all over the world.
My heart is always bursting with a passion to see Jesus transform lives just like he has done with mine. The Lord has taught me the importance of serving locally during my time in college and now I feel he is saying I’m ready to be sent out to love my neighbors across the world in
Mongolia
China
Malaysia
Thailand
Rwanda
Uganda
Guatemala
Honduras
El Salvador
Albania
Greece
As I humbly step into this journey with the Lord, I am holding onto
Isaiah 61
“The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me,
because the Lord has anointed me to preach good new to the poor.
He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
to proclaim freedom for the captives and
release from darkness for the prisoners,
to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor
and the day of vengeance of our God,
to comfort all who mourn,
and to provide for those who grieve in Zion-
to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes,
the oil of gladness instead of mourning,
and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair.
They will be called oaks of righteousness,
a planting of the Lord
for the display of his splendor.”
With all the hurt and brokenness in the world at this moment, I still believe in a good God. I believe light can cast out darkness and that love never fails. I constantly question why God is choosing to send me out for such a time as this. Yet, I am quickly reminded to trust my Fathers heart and that I am not walking this journey alone.
Thank you for your support and prayers!
