** Update & feelings on fundraising from my blog leading up to my mission trip this fall with Adventures in Missions.
On Friday, October 23, I got the phone call that I have been accepted for the World Race! It was wonderful, assuring, comforting, pretty amazing, almost unbelievable, so cool, and many other emotions. Almost a month later, I am so so thankful and grateful that this is the beautiful and fulfilling life I am blessed to live. Also in the past few weeks, I have began to learn and realize much about myself and what this process and journey is and may look like. Since the majority of the preparation over the next eleven months relates to fundraising, that has been my primary focus. 13,500. 13,500. That number seems so daunting. I'm a full-time college student working two part-time jobs. I don't make that much in one year, and i'm supposed to fundraise that. I'm not saying i'm doubting how big and good God is, all i'm saying is that is a seemingly daunting and big number. I believe in a God who is bigger and more powerful than any dollar amount. I believe in a God who gave me this opportunity for a reason. I'm choosing to live fearless, undaunted, and stronger than money. If God is on my side, nothing can be against me. Thank you so much for choosing to follow along and join in on this journey with me. Your support and encouragement means the world to me!
