I don’t know if I can really express what my expectations are for the world race. It’s kind of a blurry mess in my head right now but here’s my best shot at it.
I expect:
my heart to be shattered and put back together about every other day
to break my record for fewest showers in a month
that I will fall into a deeper love with the orphaned
to learn better conflict resolution
that I’ll get over my aversion to mystery foods
I’m expectant that God will:
provide 100% of the funds I need to make the journey
never stop pouring out grace on me
break down walls of fear and insecurities
shatter each bond of shame and guilt
walk with me during this refinement period
never stop speaking
show up in every single way that I’ll need
show me more of himself
provide me with what I ask
teach me to receive more of his love
break bonds of injustice done to his children
bring freedom to young women working in bars
provide new life for those who have fallen asleep
bring a new depth and authenticity to those who have only heard whispers of his name
heal the sick
bind up the broken hearted
bring restoration for the weary
I’m expectant that the Lord will bring glory to his name.
I’m trying to keep my own expectations of what I think this journey will be like to a minimum. I’m also praying that I would have an increased expectancy of who God is and what he is capable of. I think that right now I have no idea how big God is but I’m expectant that I’ll begin to learn.
