This is scary.
This trip is scary.
Having to put 150% of my trust into God is scary.
Realizing I’ll be living in different countries with 30+ strangers is scary.
Every time I talk about this trip I get asked “how did you get so brave?”
The answer – I’m not. I’m not brave at all, I just have a lot of faith in God.
Being brave is something I’ve never been, I’ve always been held back by fear, some of my earliest memories are of me crying from fear, fear of the unknown, fear of the known. Fear of everything.
But I’m learning,
I’m learning being brave and being faithful to God are one and the same.
” no evil shall be allowed to befall you,
no plague come near your tent.
For he will command his angels concerning you. to guard you in all your ways.”
-psalm 91:10-11
It takes a lot if faith to put everything you have on the alter of God.
But I know that the plan God has for me is way better than the plan I have for me, so I am faithful. I have days where I feel like I’ll never reach where God wants me to be, but I just pray. I pray constantly, and it keeps me faithful.
