wondering what I should write for my 1st blog post, and I thought
I should start now. Oh, FYI: I am not a writer and get super excited when I type,
so if the blog is not clear and you get confused…it’s ok, everyone does. That is
something I am trying to work on: communicating my thoughts with only using
words on a screen. It’s tough, but I’m sure you will get the hang of the blog. I
just got done a Young Adult Bible study that was amazing! God definitely met us
there and God was building bridges, connecting puzzle pieces of life, speaking
through people, giving visions, and I could go on about how great this was. It was
truly amazing and in the middle of all of the excitement, the World Race is
constantly on my mind. This trip is definitely for me, right now. God has
proven it over and over again. He has given me other opportunities that have I have
not accepted, because I didn’t feel right about them and did not have a peace. I
declined the other opportunities and still wondered if I should do the World
Race. Then God reminded me, “If this was not for you, I would make you feel
like you felt with these other opportunities!” So this peace that I have, along
with all the ideas God is flooding my mind with, all lead me towards the World
race.
I just got accepted about two weeks
ago, which is extremely late! I have no support financially yet, and I’m
supposed to be at $3,000 already. I have so many friendships that I do not want
to leave, but I know I will still stay in contact with them. There is so much
that is going on right now and each day flies by and I look towards the next
day and it looks like a tornado, but God seems to always pave the way for me J Also, the reason I have been so stressed is that I have had
to make a decision on going on the World Race in a matter of weeks, because I found
out about it so late!
How did I find out about it? Good question.
When I was in Haiti Aug.7-14 with Audio Adrenaline’s Hands and Feet project,
starting construction on the 2nd Children’s Village, there was
another group that stayed at our tent site. This other team was on the World
Race. I was pestered daily by this team about how I was a “World Racer” and
that I am definitely going on a World Race trip sometime in my life. I got back
and had to immediately pray and fast, waiting on the Lord to seek if this is
what He wanted me to do. I really do think this is what He has planned for the
next part of my life and I am SUPER excited for it!!
Here I am. I am saying that I am going
on the World Race, Lord willing. There is so much to be done before I leave. I am
worried that if I leave, I will miss opportunities, but is that the way to look
at THIS opportunity? No way! Gods got it all planned out and will work
everything out. I can still communicate with everyone, so it will not be too
difficult to keep those relationships in a healthy condition.
There are so many things going through
my head right now and I’m not sure which ones to type and which ones to try to
forget about. If I think of anything later, I’ll just blog about it…how about
that? Deal? Ok, good!
Thanks for reading!
