Help.
I don't like asking for it. Honestly, I don't like needing it. I love appearing self-sufficient, strong, and together.
That's truly all it is though – an appearance.
I'm learning (though still needing constant reminders) that my identity isn't in this faux appearance of strength. Rather, Christ has secured my identity as a beloved and cherished daughter through His imputed righteousness.
Such freedom lies in being seen as pure in the sight of my Father!
because Jesus won for me, I [am] free to lose;
because Jesus was someone, I [am] free to be no one;
because Jesus was extraordinary, I [am] free to be ordinary;
because Jesus succeeded for me, I [am] free too fail."
(Jesus+Nothing=Everything by Tullian Tchividjian, page 24)
Ways you can help:
Prayer – I covet your prayers! I'm not expecting this journey to be easy – quite the opposite. I'm anticipating brokenness, the kneading out of selfishness, and the desperation of my soul panting after the mercy of my Savior. Will you join me in praying for:
- the preparation of my heart
- the hearts of my squadmates – that we would be knit together as family
- the hearts of those we will come in contact with and be serving around the world
Financially –
This figure looms overhead and causes me to ache with worry often. In those times, I try to remember – He is faithful and has proven to be more times than I can count.

As I was driving a few days ago, my iPod shuffled to the song "Money Need Me" by theBREAX. This lyric wrecked me…
