I am already at the halfway point of my Race. It feels surreal to look back and wonder where all that time went! This month in Panama my team’s ministry has been to network and make connections with ministries that could be potential hosts and contacts that World Race teams can partner with in the future. It has been so incredible to see how God has daily directed our steps this month to lead us to the right people and I feel so honored to be a part of what He is doing here. We have met people in the markets, in the streets, on boats and the beaches, at the meat counter, at our hostels…literally everywhere! This month is only getting started, and we have already made some GOD CONNECTIONS! I’m so excited to see who else God places in our paths the next couple of weeks.
But now, the time is ticking. I have until July 1st to raise $2,830 and I have fully put my trust in the Lord. I have prayed every day since being on the Race that God’s Will would be done in my life. I have had my ups and downs and it hasn’t been all rainbows and butterflies. I have been homesick and tired and wanted to come home. But in the end, I feel like this is still where I am supposed to be. I just would find it hard to believe that God would send me on an 11-month trip to come home after month 6. But I am trusting that He knows best and if the funds don’t come in, then I will have a peace about coming home. At this point, I am wondering whether it could possibly be His Will for me to come home early. But I know that if this is where I am supposed to be, He WILL provide. If all of my family, friends, supporters, and loved ones would please pray and believe with me that GOD’S WILL would be done in my life, I would greatly appreciate it! I just want to make sure that I stay on the path that He has for my life wherever that may lead. If it is His Will for me to come home, praise the Lord! I have learned a lot and experienced many things and am thankful for each and every opportunity I have had to serve this year. And if it is His Will for me to stay, then I believe that nothing is too big for my God and even though the odds seem high that I will be fully funded by July 1st, NOTHING is impossible for my God. So, thank you once again for your prayers, love, and support! If you feel lead to sow into the ministry God has me doing here, you can go to the “Support Me!” link on the right side of this page and donate whatever the Lord puts on your heart. And if not, please continue to pray and believe for God’s Will to be done in my life! Thank you thank you thank you!
