Every morning as a team we get up and pray and have some alone time with the Lord. And every morning it never fails, I am scared to pray with the team outloud. You would think that after speaking in front of so many churches, praying with 6 people would be nothing. Not so much. One of my biggest insecurities is speaking in front of people. Something on the World race i have to and must get over. Because everywhere you go, people expect you to speak and share your story. Which in my last blog, I shared that I have a hard time freely giving of my heart. And so this is a BIG problem God is working out in me. So this morning we have church and each one of us goes through and shares a little bit about why we are on the race and let me tell you i was kind of nervous. The entire time everyone else was sharing I remember thinking to myself, I really don’t like talking in front of people. And then it happened, the pastor asks our team if someone would preach. We all kind of look around, and our team leader Garrett said well if no one else feels led to preach i can. And my big mouth opens up and says well i can. I go to get my bible from my seat and think to myself what in the world. why did i say that, who said that cause i know it was not me. And yep, it was, i am the one thats preaching today. No sermon, no notes, just being led by the spirit. I have never felt more alive and walking in faith than I did today. To step outside of my comfort zone and with nothing give people the message. God is doing a big work in my heart. And i am learning to walk in the confidence in whose i am and that i am a daughter of Christ and thats all i need to preach the gospel.
