Now that I’ve been officially accepted to participate in the World Race, my instinctual reaction is to use definitive language to describe my future. e.g. “I’ll be going on the World Race in January 2019” stating as a matter of fact. Unfortunately I believe that is romance and not reality.
God has never promised that I would be going on this trip anyway. I have not had dreams or seen any writtings on the wall that say “Go”. I did see an answer to prayer by being accepted. But that still solidifies nothing except the chance to try. From here it’s faithfulness and patience for more answers to prayer.
I do know that I have the Spirit driven desire to serve in this way. And I’m confident that if you, my community, supports me and God continues to provide opportunity, that I will go and God will be pleased with that outcome. The reality is that I am going to need a lot of help. This mission will not be mine but my community’s and I, the instrument.
I’m thrilled to have this opportunity but I can’t do it alone!
