So it is so funny… when I signed up for the world race I completely stepped out in faith and confidence and knew this was what the Lord had me to do and I was excited I didn't think about the money or all the other things I would have to sacrifice while on this trip. I just did it. It wasn't until after I got accepted and deadlines were coming up and things weren't exactly running smoothly that I got a little phased. I felt like Peter when He got out of the boat all excited to step out to Jesus. His focus and eyes were on the Lord. What does he do next though? He looks down and out and begins to fear. Then he starts to sink. That is exactly what I felt like I was overwhelmed at what I had gotten myself into and took my eyes off the One who had called me and said, "Step out Brittney I will be right here with you . I will not leave you of forsake you " So now when things are back on track and beginning to work out I think…hey!! Why in the world didn't I just trust the Lord with all this. He's called me to it, He will not leave me hanging or expect me to figure out all this stuff on my own. Of course He will work out all the little kinks and seeminly large roadblocks. If it's His will it's HIS BILL!! The Lord is bringing me to a place of brokenness and dependence on him. If I'm not broken before Him He can't do what He wants in and through me. I want to be the clay in His hands moldable being formed into His masterpiece He has in mind. I'm so excited for this journey.This is only the beginning! It will be refining, it will be exciting, rough, fun, and it will be so WORTH IT!
