I have always enjoyed traveling and seeing the incredible world our Father created. I have always felt a tug in my heart for missionary work, doing what God tells us to do in Matthew 28:19 – “Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.” So when I have had the chances I have gone like He has told me to. I stumbled upon the World Race around four years ago and I thought what incredible way to just do God’s will but at the time I was not old enough. Then when I was old enough, my excuse changed to ‘I need to finish school’ and so on. But as time went on the tug in my heart grew stronger and stronger and then I heard the song Oceans (where feet may fail) by Hillsong United and I remember I instantly teared up because that is my exact feeling and prayer to God. “Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders. Let me walk upon the waters wherever You would call me. Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander and my faith will be made stronger in the presence of my SAVIOR!!”
After really praying to God and focusing on Him I realized that it is time to give everything to Him and to do what He has called me to do. I started the application process and within a couple days I received one of the best phone calls of my life, being told that I had been accepted to do the World Race. I literally filled with so much joy and the presence of God. I started to cry because I have never felt such a strong desire or calling to do something. God has the most perfect timing and plans in my life and I cannot wait to embark on this incredible adventure to spread His love to all the people and to focus solely on Him and what He wants me to do and nothing else. I have tattooed on the arches of my feet “Walk by faith, not by sight” and this is seriously what I am doing. Trusting solely on God and what He has put me on this earth for.
I hope y’all feel His presence in reading my blog and what the future holds for me. Thank you for the support and prayers. <3
