That point on the race that I have eagerly anticipated for months.
AFRICA
God has done more than I can possibly explain in these few short moments I have to write to you. I have SO much I want to share, yet time has escaped me as I have been moving into this new season of Squad Leading. It has been one of the most challenging, fun, and busiest months of my life; but how God has moved.
Every day I look less and less like who I thought I was and each new day begin to realize who THE I AM says I am.
I am learning what it looks like to die to myself and put 65 others before me; even though I most often fall short.
I continue to grow in my love for this family of saints, and am inspired by their growth.
I have been called out on my imperfections, learning I don’t always have to “package my heart”.
I am learning how much my God loves me, far beyond I can ever comprehend.
I’m embracing my strengths and letting others excel where I fall short.
I am CHANGING.
I know these next 3 months hold more than I can possibly imagine. I’m actually trying not to imagine and just rest in the fact that God has exactly the right plan in store for me and my squad. This won’t be easy. I’m not ready. But I don’t need to be.
It is truly in MY weakness that HE IS STRONG. So my heart is to go into Africa letting God do what He wants and operating out of His abilities instead of my own. Sounds like a good plan to me… He’s more faithful every day.
Until next time,
Joshua
