This was written from my iPhone because my computer is having problems so bear with me.
Here in Manila there is a place called Cloud9. It’s a 360 view of Manila and is one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen. There’s two different ways to get to the top of the building and see the view, by stairs or a rope bridge thing. The group I was with started going up the rope bridge and I decided to follow even though I was hesitant. About half way up I didn’t think I could do it. I wanted nothing more than to turn around and go back down. We were only half way and it was SO high up already. I stopped to panic for a second and said to no one in particular “you don’t understand I’m not the kind of person who does things like this”. My squad mate Drew was in front of me and he turned and said “you are now”. In that moment on a rope bridge in the Philippines God spoke to me.
The Father wants to take me on adventures. He wants to show me great things and do great things through me. I have this tendency of getting half way through things and deciding that I’ve had enough and that I want to quit. That is NOT what God wants from me. He wants me to be all in, giving myself in complete trust of Him. When I’m faced with the choice of taking the stairs or the rope bridge He want me to step out in faith. Faith Is adventurous. It’s taking risks and knowing that God will do impossible things. I want this to be the faith I have on this Race and for the rest of my life.
