Lettting go
It all seems so easy at first with all the excitement and thrill thinking about and leading up to the Race.
"yea, I'm ready to leave and travel the world for a year," I would say.
I was so willing to go out and share God's love with the world no matter the cost. Ready to give up my comforts, my job,
my everything to be a light to the nations.
Don't get me wrong i am still willing and exciting, I'm just sad to leave some people behind.
I'm sad to leave my parents once again. I feel like i always do this to them. It's only 11 months right?
8 months is the longest i have gone with out physically seeing them in person, what's 3 more months?
It's a lot. It feels like i just got back yeasterday from Kenya when in reality it was 10 months ago.
It's been enough time to leave again..right?
What about the few friendships i have built over the past several months?? I just have to tell them good- bye?
What if it never comes back to the way it is now?
We can ask ou selves so many questions and worry so much just before we venture out into what we have been called to do.
Why don't we sit back for a moment and breath in real deep and let Jesus handle all our fears and worries. Let him take care of our families just like he has always been doing for us.
Let him hold our relationships together or release the ones he does not see best for us.
Let Jesus be in control. After all he is all we need. He is why we are where we are today. He is the only person who
will never ever let us down.
Sit back and breathe Jesus.
