Welcome to my Blog!
I am OFFICIALLY a WORLD RACER!
….WHAT.
I still do not think it has hit me yet that I am about to embark on this journey. If you would have told me two years ago that I will graduate college in May 2015 and decide to take a year off to go on the World Race before physical therapy school, I would have thought you were out of your mind.
Believe me, I have asked God, “Why me?” It would be so much more socially acceptable to do what I originally was planning on doing after I obtained my undergraduate degree. I was already discussing where I wanted to apply for physical therapy school. I was imagining all of the different cities and places I could live in the United States where I could have a good living and be comfortable.
But all along, I was missing the real point.
Life isn’t all about me. And life isn’t about being comfortable.
In the past 6 months, God has been dramatically changing the desires of my heart and has made me realize that His plan for me is far greater than I could ever imagine. Surrendering my life to Christ is what gives me life and that’s how I want to live.
“I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.”
Galatians 2:20
I know this journey isn’t going to be easy. Satan is already attacking my weaknesses and coming at me from every angle. I know that I will be broken to the point of wanting to quit. But God is faithful and He is my strength in my weakness.
“That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.”
2 Corinthians 12:10
