Eccl 3:1 “For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven.”
This is my season! A season of going out into the world and sharing the heart of God that I’ve come to know.
In January 2018, I felt like I had hit a spiritual wall. I was in a good place overall: involved in an engaging church, a heart-healing ministry, and had the ear and support of amazing family and friends. But God was opening up the dreams of my heart, bringing me into a new season; this season.
I was searching for my next step, and the World Race kept coming across my path. My soul jumped and I knew. This! This is the season I am moving into. I am backpacking through 11 countries in 11 months, Belize, Honduras, El Salvador, Vietnam, Cambodia, Albania, Romania, Serbia, Ethiopia, Uganda and Rwanda, fulfilling the dreams of my heart to travel with Jesus. Ecclesiastes 3:11 “He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also, He has put eternity into man’s heart, yet no one can fathom what God has done from the beginning to the end.”
Every day is going to look different on the World Race. The World Race is a mission’s trip affiliated with Adventures in Missions, a non-denominational Christian non-profit. Some of the work we will do include: teaching English, worship nights, sharing Jesus with children, construction, and going out two by two to pray for the people we encounter in the streets. We will have days where we seek, pray and listen to God. And in all that we will do, we will explore that amazing creation of God and experience unique and beautiful cultures.
I am traveling with a community of like-minded believers to experience the book of Acts in modern day times. I expect to go deeper with Jesus through worship, prayer, and fasting. I will see the uplifted and the broken-hearted of the world, and witness the love of God coming close to them. I expect miracles!! God will introduce me to a new part of His heart. “There’s a time for every matter and for every work.” Ecclesiastes 3:17b
