“Jesus, I pray that you constantly remind her that she is enough!
How did he know? This guy that I’ve only had a handful of conversations with, know that I was doubting me, that I was putting limitations on the things the Lord wants to do with me; because I don’t think I am enough. You could say that it’s a cliche prayer people use when they pray for others, but I say that it was a word specifically for me.
To me this meant that I don’t need to wear a mask that covers up how nervous I am about traveling to new places, being with people I don’t know, eating food that I probably can’t pronounce, and raising over $16,000. To me this meant that I have the right to be ME. Somewhere between moving to Oklahoma and now I have let the fire to live a radical life go completely out, I have lost the picture of what an amazing God I follow, and I have lost the image of who He has made me to be.
He prayed for me at my job, in the middle of the restaurant.
The Lord uses people that you never expect, in places that you could not of imagined to give you a new beautiful clear picture of who He is. That night He called me out and took of the mask that I thought I needed to wear. He showed me vulnerability of a brother and told me it’s okay. My father told me that who I am is enough, in a place where I had worked so hard to not be me. He has been changing me and will continue to change me; and that whatever stage I am in I will always be enough!
I am excited about these next few months leading up to the race, and all the awesome encounters that will take place.
