To actually put words to my emotions has been pretty hard for me lately! This time has been a whirlwind of feelings that I have been trying to process through. I go through times of excitement to anxiety, sorrow to joy, and willingness to resistance. I have had to continuously remind myself of the vision in front of me and the enemy working against me. I have come to only one conclusion though.
There is no Ready or Set to this. There is only a Go.
I will never be completely ready and prepared because this entire year isn’t about being equipped or qualified. It is all about choosing into this lifestyle every day and being willing to grow with the Lord by allowing the spirit to guide my every step.
“If we wait until we’re ready, we’ll be waiting the rest of our lives.” -Lemony Snicket
The one thing I know for sure is I am ready to say yes. I am ready to wake up every morning and say yes to what the Lord has for me that day. I am ready to say yes to the uncomfortable. I am ready to say yes to carrying the burden of broken nations. In so many ways I feel like there is no way I am ready for this, but I am willing to Go and my answer to Him is Yes.
My prayer for now is that He leads my squad and my team into this first month of ministry with confidence of the Holy Spirit operating within us. I pray that as we begin to adjust to life without our comforts of home, that we find our comfort in Him. Please consider joining me in prayer for my squad and my team as we navigate through this together.
