I am afraid of stepping out with not knowing what will befall me.
I don’t know how and if I can be fully funded on the World Race mission trip.
I have battled with uncertainty and the unknown of how the funds will come in.
My emotional, physical and mental perseverance has been drained. I have been so angry, dismayed and felt lonely. I have looked at who has donated and I am shocked to see the most “unlikely” people have supported my cause and those supposed “Christians” have not.

I have toyed around with the idea of postponing my trip to January. I decided this out of a lengthy dialogue with my teammate Sarah German. I thought that this was the best option. I emailed my co-ordinater Ricci that I wanted to make the switch. I have waited for her email for the past two weeks and I finally got the word that I can’t switch to my desired January 2016 route.
What do I do now?

I ask you all to earnestly pray for clarity. I pray that I may find rest in Him who gives strength. I also pray that I can rest in reassurance that God will provide for my every need and that when he calls me out onto unknown waters I will go. I pray that I step out without hesitation and that I truly believe in His blessing for my life.
It says in Matthew 7:7
“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.
Psalm 119:105
“Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.”

Thank you Lord of unconditional peace and care.
