I've waited all semester for this and it's happening. 6 days 'til I head for Cleveland. It's been an exciting journey finding funds and praying for this altogether. It started off as a thought which later developed into something that I wanted to pursue and wow, it's happening. As I began paying/praying for this, I had no idea where the money would come from, but I'm thankful that people have supported me in ways unimaginable. I'm continually thankful for how God is working and providing.
This is such a new experience for me and I feel like I'm stepping out for the first time, nonetheless, I'm excited and expectant. My thoughts are all over the place as I try to grasp all that might happen ... but that's just it ... I have no idea what's going to happen or what's ahead of us (and I think the team is just as clueless - haha), but my prayer is that we'd have open and available hearts and more than that, ones that are willing and obedient in order for God to move in ways we are not aware of.
As I'm preparing my heart, I find myself just asking how. How am I even capable or competent to go and how am I going to show Christ to others because to put it plainly, I feel like I am the last person who could. There is comfort because my confidence is found in God and He alone is able to prepare me [us] adequately. I think that feeling incapable is something that the enemy puts in our minds but it's definitely not something we have to declare.
Pray for us, friends.
