As most of you know from July 19th-July 26th I was in Georgia training for The World Race. I won’t be able to fully explain what happened that week because it was more of a feeling than anything. I wish beyond words and thoughts that all of you could have experience the things I did last week. However, that’ll only be obtainable if you too sign up for The World Race (SO GO DO IT NOW! haha)!
I came to camp thinking that I was somewhat ready for it. My mind set was defaulted to open and that stayed true the entire week. By July 26th I was spiritually, emotionally, and physically drained but still felt like I could run a marathon. (Only because I was filled with God though and through him all things are possible!!)
During camp I was completely broken and rebuilt. Chains and Walls were ripped down that I didn’t even know existed and lessons I couldn’t even try to give were learned. People were forgiven that I promised myself I’d never look at the same. I realized God is always by my side, even when I think he isn’t. I learned to not be ashamed and listen to what the Holy Spirit is telling me. I could go on forever with the lessons and stories because they are endless but I won’t. I wouldn’t have traded last week for a thing! I will forever cherish the laughs, cries, and vibes from that week!
I found out my countries as well..drum roll please…Philippines, Swaziland, and Nicaragua!! I also found out when my launch is, September 6th. (I wanna see all of your beautiful faces before I leave! Even if it’s been ages! Text or call or whatever me and set up a coffee or lunch date!)
Training camp is over though and launch is soon so hears to living in the moment and eating your strawberry everyday *raise your glasses*…
Side note: Eating your strawberry is like reflecting on one great thing that happened during the day that made you smile. It’s a random time during the day that you truly saw God through something. If your day was bad, still try to find your strawberry and reflect on it. ( I forget whose talk that was in but I ask almost everyone about their daily strawberry now so props to whoever made that up! )
Until the next post..
Love and Blessings,
Court!
