So it’s been over a month since I accepted the World Race and it’s becoming more and more real to me. The honeymoon phase is now over, and reality has hit. I realized that I am picking up and traveling around the World for a whole year. Yes A WHOLE YEAR, just dropping everything, missing Christmas and every holiday in between with my family, missing friends graduations and birthdays, leaving my life behind. It’s scary, yes very scary. And people always ask me why, why are you going?
I think it’s cool because I don’t really have an answer to that question, besides that this is what God wants me to do. We will never know the why or the how in our life, but God knows. He knows the where, the when and the how of our every move. I love that. God has a hold on my life. And I can’t wait to continue this journey in my faith through this trip. More importantly it’s exciting, a chance to serve others and love on people all over the World that need more help, love, compassion, kindness and a smile!!
Lately God has been teaching me to be in the moment, the here and the now. Welllll for all of you who know me well, I plan. Yes I like my schedule and I like to know what will happen next. Yet, that’s not how I should be looking at my life. I should be living as if there’s no tomorrow. Because is there a tomorrow for me? I don’t know and I never will. But that’s the BEST part, Jesus gives us new life each and everyday since the moment he died for our sins. My favorite all time verse shows that….
Proverbs 16:9 “In their hearts humans plan their course,
but the Lord establishes their steps”
He is establishing my steps and I am so excited! I will be posting about a few fundraising opportunities in the next few weeks. Yes there will be tshirts involved!! Have an awesome week everyone.
And remember….. God establishes our steps!
