The TWO HUNDRED METER! This race is a race that is a sprint but also takes some planing! You see if you start your 100% sprint at the start line you might loose momentum by the finish. But at the same time if you start too slow with just a run then you will can finish but you will be last!
You see the Two Hundred is the race that you have to start out with a fast run at the beginning around your 80%. But as soon as you finish that turn on the track that is when you have to kick in to high gear and give it your 100%.
Now you might be wondering why is Julia talking about running a sprinting race, she is on a mission trip that is not an actual race. What is she talking about?
Thanks for asking….. Now you see I it is now May so that means that it is officially month number 10!!!
That is month number 10 out of 11 months!!
This means that there is only 2 month left of this crazy adventure that I am on!!
So right now I am running my best race that I could run as my final two month of the race!!
I am running with endurance and courage knowing that I am going to reach the finish line with more energy and excitement then when I started !!
So the next two month we are doing somthing called ASK THE LORD month. What this means is that we do bat have an assigned ministry host or location. So it is all up to what and where the Lord is leading us.
This month we are Malyasia and we really felt that the Lord was calling us to one of the many Islands of Malyasia. What we are doing here is walking around the Island and talking to everyone we meet. From everyone at the different store and restaurants that we go to, to the street venders and just different people walking down the street!!
Wow we have been here just for 5 Days and the Lord is doing some really amazing things that could only be him.
From Muslims picking up and reading our Christian Books and THE BIBLE, to many asking about our faith and what we are doing here, to more than I can count conversations, to just really crazy adventures like biking to a fruit orchard with a local and being attacked by misquotes while picking rose apples, more to come from this story ( be looking for my next blog!!).
So what I ask is to keep us in your prayers!! That the Lord will continue working in crazy ways on our special Island! That now only I but everyone on my squad will finish their last 200 Meter with more energy and endurance then when we started last August!!
THERE IS THE GUN SHOT !!! I AM OFF FOR THE BEST TWO HUNDRED OF MY LIFE!!!
Love
JULIA
