Sorry it’s been a while
since my last post.
Something that the Lord
has been challenging me a lot in lately is the idea of sacrifice. Up to this
point of my journey to go back to Kenya, the idea of going back has been all
positives. I mean I LOVE that country, the people are magnificent, I feel alive
there, God has given me a passion and desire for that place. I guess it hasn’t
really hit me that I will be giving up 2 years of my life until now.
It’s like I have to
choose. In one hand is Kenya and the vision that the Lord has given us, and in
the other hand is everything that I will be giving up.
I’m not going to lie,
Satan has a heyday with this. Questions, doubt, fear definitely arise. Is it
worth it? Are you willing to give up all this for something that you are unsure
of? Gosh, I have never questioned anything so much.
But then that tiny whisper
reminds me that no one ever said that it would be easy, and everything worth
doing for the Lord is going to take sacrifice. While the answer should be easy,
that doesn’t undermine the fact that it’s still hard to give up things that you
love. So, is it worth the sacrifice? Of course, isn’t the Kingdom of God worth
giving up everything for? Isn’t seeing captives freed worth the pain of leaving
everything you know? Isn’t seeing light in the darkness and life from the dead
worth your comfort?
So just some food for
thought…or maybe just it’s just for me!
By the way my team and I
are planning something huge that will be revealed soon. Get ready! Visit our
