I’m sitting on my porch as I’ve just found out that my church will not support my World Race. Neither will the businesses I’ve e-mailed. Or really anyone else besides the awesome family and friends’ that have given what they could, which unfortunately, just isn’t enough.
It’s funny because there have been so many people who have said to me “I couldn’t do something like that!” and things of that nature. But if someone like me doesn’t go and do something like this, then who will? I’ve gotten so many rejections with a “best of luck!” at the end of the e-mail, like someone else will support me, someone else will care, someone else will take in my financial needs which are being used to help other people. But I’m just wondering, who will? If I don’t go, who will? If the people around me don’t care, who will?
I know that God is good and perfect and holy, but His people have to be willing to care, too. I ask for prayers of comfort and clarity as I am constantly being pushed aside and this trip is something that is seen as cute and brave, but not really something worth caring about. I ask for prayers of peace, that I can do what I can here, and still help others, as it looks like I may not be able to go on this trip.
Thank you for those of you who have supported me. Always make sure to help, because if you won’t, who will?
