Can I take a minute to tell you what I’m thinking. In like 4 months I am leaving the country for 9 months! Let that sink in. I am going to be with minimal communication back home doing whatever it is that the Lord my God needs me to do. I am going to do this with a group of wonderful people who I’ve never met in person, but already love.
Guys I have reached my first deadline and I am very close to my second one, but I still need so much support. At times I feel this heavy pressure to just quit like this could be to hard and maybe just maybe it won’t be worth it. Then I get on my knees and just pour my heart out and I get comfort I know without a shadow of a doubt God is telling me to go for it telling me that it is worth it and that I am going to go great places and do things in love through His holy and great name! And I can’t even begin to describe how ecstatic that makes me! It’s hard for me to keep a blog because I don’t know what you want to know.I can tell you my theme song for my fundraising and for this journey in general has been Do Something by Matthew West.
My favorite verse is “Well, I don’t know about you
But I’m sick and tired of life with no desire
I don’t want a flame, I want a fire
I wanna be the one who stands up and says,
“I’m gonna do something”
and the chorus goes “If not us, then who
If not me and you
Right now, it’s time for us to do something
If not now, then when
Will we see an end
To all this pain
It’s not enough to do nothing
It’s time for us to do something”
I can also tell you that I have had a number of people give me $20-$25 and for many that’s nothing and for some it’s a lot but for me it brings me to tears every single time. I am not exaggerating. I have cried out praise and thanks to God for every single donation I have received. I want to thank each and everyone of you. And I want to thank everyone who is praying for me. You have honestly been helping me pursue a dream come true and I could not be more grateful.
