I believe that these next couple of months before I launch for the World Race are going to be a calm before the storm. Although I must say the Lord has already begun the stretching process. (I was however the one that asked Him to throw as many challenges at me as possible.) I know that in order to glorify Him, I must continue to be refined as I learn to trust God through the unknown. I was aware going into this process that raising support would be one of the most challenging parts for me (although at this point, support raising is the only part of the process I have experienced). In this I will have to learn to be rejected, and gracefully and humbly accept that; I am also focusing all my energy on keeping my eyes fixed on Christ, in order to remain unswayed in my convictions and His truth. I’ve realized that it’s only when I am distracted by other’s opinions that I begin to doubt my being on the World Race.
As a quick update on my support; I have been extremely slow to get going. Please pray that I would find strength in the Lord for sharing my vision and asking for financial support. As well as simply being proactive and motivated every day….I am also on the hunt for a job right now, in order to contribute to myself financially.
Random fact: so I am a little awkward sometimes. While running, I like to listen to worship music and sometimes I get really into it…and people probably think I’m really weird. hehe It’s fun.
aaaand…training camp in exactly ONE MONTH! Woot! I need $2000 in support by the time training camp is here. If ever I had trust issues in the past I am confident they will be absolved after this…
