Hello supporters, friends, Coworkers, relatives, former racers, future racers and whoever you are. Who are all loved by our father. I have just arrived in Atlanta a little less than 48 hours ago. We are leaving for Honduras, our first country on Monday. It is pretty surreal right now and I’ve been a mix of excited and nervous since I have been here so far. Thank you all for making this possible. I don’t know where these blogs will lead, but I am required to right 1 a week.. so here it goes. Why not start with Love 

Ever since I have been around this organization starting in training camp and now in Atlanta. The love of God has always been the theme of everything. Everything is surrounded  by that simple truth. I want you all to know that this love is availble to you and me. If I can grasp this a little more and keep going deeper with him, he will keep showing you and I that his love has no limits and it can’t be contained. Its reckless love that he would come down from heaven and humble himself into a human and have his body broken to the point of death and then raise it up again. Where God is there is no fear. Perfect Love casts out fear (1 John 4:18). I want to share that love with others!! I just want to get in quiet time with God and absorb his love so I can give it to others.

Thank you all for coming along side me on this journey. Your support has been very comforting. Like I have said I am going to try and email you everytime I write a blog. But please feel free to check out my website as well johnthorstad.theworldrace.org . I want you to see where your money is going  towards the progress of the gospel. I’m so excited for this journey!!! I could tell you so much more from what I’ve learned and the chains that are breaking at launch with all the sessions and worship we’ve been through, but I could write a whole book. That will be the tough part as I write these blogs, but the spirit will guide me. God is shaping your life too wherever your at he will meet you there!!!
