Emily Simpson is currently spending month 5 of her race in Kenya. Check out what God is doing in her heart!
I stepped foot off the plane in Kenya and asked God to stir my soul again.

I never knew my heart would change so much in five months. Nothing is hardly the same.I continue to desire something more, to know more of a grand King. I was convinced that my heart was only connected to Africa.

After living in Asia for the last three months, I couldn’t help but leave a piece of my heart in the Philippines, Cambodia, Laos, and Thailand. It is been quite a transition going from Asia to Africa. I never would have imagined that my life would consist of traveling to remote areas of the world and trying to love the people the way Christ did.
God, why are you so good to your children?
My mind is bombarded with glimpses of the way I have literally experienced heaven on earth the past three months. God is working… if you don’t believe it ask Him to reveal himself to you.
God is not just working in me – He is present in His children and His creation.


God, show me more children that areon fire for you.
REVEAL yourself in new ways.
Pierce my heart.
AWAKEN my soul.
Father, prepare me for the second half of this journey. Rejuvenate my spirit and renew my passion to serve you.

Lord, remind me why I fell in love.
