This is the start of my Journey. The end to my comfort zone. The stretch to my Faith. The start of my Blossom.
It’s August 20, 2016 and I just SURVIVED training camp for The World Race. Training Camp was to prepare for the Mission Trip that I will be embarking on in October for 11 months! I say…. survived, because for ten days I was pushed emotionally, physically and spiritually.
Physically- Timed hikes, a 70 L backpack and a tent to live from, cold bucket showers and also, strange foods including crickets for breakfast.
Emotionally-Among my team, there is around 40 of us. 40 people= a lot of brokenness. We were able to come together this week and experience Gods restoration and hope through the telling of our stories. What a beautiful thing; A lot of inner healing took place! Amen, to that!
Spiritually- Learned ways to become an effective missionary, Lots of prayers being lifted up, Bible studies, and a lot of Worship.
All in All. God gave me exactly what I needed at Training Camp.
Going into camp, I had feelings of being super unprepared, over-worked, stressed, not spiritual enough and straight up, just insecure and unsteady about the whole thing. For goodness sake before leaving, I was to the point of getting sick with how exhausted and over-worked, I felt.
Coming out of training camp, I have never felt more encouraged or called to do something, in my life. I met my brothers and sisters in Christ, got prophesied over (which I will have to write a blog about
), and also, let go of a lot of shame. I now, can say that I am 100% ready to walk in purity, encourage others, make The Lord known and do the work of God.
The group I will be doing life with consists of five other women. We will be living in a small community just as Jesus sent His Disciples. We have the opportunity to be partnering with Ministries from all over the world. The following countries are: Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Honduras, Guatemala, Malaysia, Thailand, Cambodia, Philippines, Rwanda, Uganda, and Kenya.
Please meet my team that The Lord has truly blessed me with…
We will be walking through this Journey- together. One thing I’ve learned is to never -Limit God and to expect the un-expected with God. Will you go on this Journey with me?
