Two and a half weeks until training camp! What?! Only 2 months until launch! How can that be right? There is still tons of gear to buy, vaccines to research, fundraisers to organize, bags to pack and repack until everything fits, people to try to see before leaving for 11 months….the list goes on and on. My mind has been in a complete FRENZY.
Words cannot describe how excited that I am for this adventure that the Lord has called me to embark upon. But with such unknown circumstances and stepping WAY outside of my comfort zone…comes a rush of frazzled emotions. I know that the enemy is doing everything in his power to use my frenzy as a diversion. It has been harder to focus during quiet times. It has been harder not to dwell on fear. There are some days when I wonder how in the world it will be possible to raise $9,000.00 by January…. after I launch in July and am 2,000 miles away from home.
But then I remember that it is not worldly possible.
God is way more powerful than this world and He has called me to a FAITH that is out of this world. I have to take a step back and realize how much the Lord has been faithful in His provision already!
Just last month I had no idea how I was going to be at $3,500.00 in my account by the training camp deadline, or if it was even remotely possible for me to be at $6,500.00 in my World Race account by the Launch deadline. Last week I found out that a $2,000.00 donation was made to my account. WOAH! The Lord is awesome (and so are my friends! Love you guys!!). I am now where I need to be for the Launch deadline. I am totally amazed. Amen! I just don't know why it is so hard for me to wrap my brain around God's faithfulness and why I still continue to doubt.
So while I still have a long way to go, I know that I am not alone. The Lord promises to walk with me. He says to ask and we shall receive. I am blown away by how what seemed completely impossible to me just last month has been proved more than possible by my God! I know that He will continue to be my Rock! So instead of choosing to live in a FRENZY I will choose to live by FAITH!
