Here goes my first blog post, so bare with me.
I went and saw the Greatest Showman for the fifth time in theaters Sunday (yes trust me I know that’s ridiculous) but I noticed something I hadn’t the previous times. Charity, the wife to P.T. Barnum, says “don’t you think there is enough blind trust in my life” as her husband has her eyes covered with his hands as he welcomes her to their new home. When I really thought about this it reminded me of life with Jesus. The amount of blind trust in a relationship with him is greater than any other relationship out there but that’s what makes it exciting. As I applied for this trip and got accepted I started to learn how much blind trust really goes into all of it. I do not know what I will be doing each day, if I will have a bed to sleep in, if I will stay healthy, honestly I’m more blind then I am able to see at this point. However, I strongly believe that the Lord wanted to me to go on this adventure to learn how important it is to lean on him and experience blind trust first hand. He is a good and faithful God so I know I will be fine even when I can’t see clearly in front of me.
Raising almost $16,000 is definitely one of the biggest challenges I’ve ever been faced with but I am confident in the Lord because he never fails to provide. Thanks for walking with me in this new stage of life and for all the constant support.
Isaiah 6:8 Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?” And I said, “Here am I. Send me!”
