FUNDRAISING

Well I knew coming into the World Race that I would have the opportunity to grow spiritually and experience God in a whole, and learn new things about myself. I figured that all of that would take place on the trip itself but I have come to find out that even the process leading up to the trip in August God would use to shape and mold me and experience Him in new ways. Through this process already I feel like I’ve grown and have seen God work and interact with me in ways I haven’t seen. He has revealed weak spots, allowed me to make mistakes in order for me to grow and gain experience in working faith and trusting Him. The fundraising part of this process has been the biggest test by far! Through fundraising God has taught me so much and the biggest 3 are Faith,Trust, and Patience. He has worked my faith by putting me in sutuations to  where  I would have to put myself in remembrance of His promises and his divine power to do the impossible and how that the impossible is His forte. I have had to have faith in not only that He can but that He will do what He says! In these past months Hes really put my trust to to the test to start out the year I’ve had to trust when He tells me yes or no, go or stop, leave or stay, wait or pursue and in that I’ve really learned to seek God in prayer and listen for his voice to make my election sure. In return all things have worked patience to wait when he says wait, patiently wait on answers and also wait for things to flow. When I make mistakes He is there to pick me up and correct me or patiently waiting for me to see I’ve made a mistake and when I trust He never fails to come through in ways far beyond expectaion and in the end it all worked experience and growth! He is truly a faithful God who makes no mistakes and is perfect in everything He does and can use both good and bad things for his purpose! Thank you to everyone who has helped me along the way with prayers, encouragement and finances! I am grateful for you all!
