World Race Update

Good Morning  Friends and Family

We are living in strange times of uncertainty. Each day this week, I have gone into work with the thought, “Will this be my last day.” When someone has asked me how I am doing in the midst of all that is going on, I have said, “I still have a job!” I never thought I would have to deal with not having a job in the season before God called me to leave everything I know. How do you process information in a season of uncertainty? I have learned to run to the King of the King and the Lord of Lords. I don’t have all the answers but I know someone who does and I am so relieved.

 Most of you are wondering if I am still going on the World Race in August. The answer to this question is yes, just at a different time. The month has been changed to October.  At this time of uncertainty, I am still not sure if this will change again. Yes, I still believe that the Lord is calling me to go!! I will choose to wait for Him patiently during this time.

 During my time with the Lord this week I was reading Isaiah 46. I was very encouraged by verses 9-10. “Do not forget this! Keep it in mind! Remember this, you guilty ones. Remember the things I have done in the past. For I alone am God! I am God, and there is none like me. Only I can tell you the future before it even happens. Everything I plan will come to pass, for I do whatever I wish.” God knows all things before they even happen. The Coronavirus did not take God by surprise. This is the time when we need to be on our knees because God can do whatever He wishes. 2 Chronicles 7:12-14 says “ Then one night the Lord appeared to Solomon and said,

“I have heard your prayer and have chosen this Temple as the place for making sacrifices. At times I might shut up the heavens so that no rain falls, or command grasshoppers to devour your crops, or send plagues among you.Then if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land.” These verses has caused me to get on my knee and pray for our land. I may not know when the last day I will be able to work at my job or even when I am going to be able to go on the World Race.  I can easily have fear in the unknown but I will trust that God knows the plans of the future. 

Thank you for support me through your prayers and finances. I will do my best to keep you update when I know more information.

Your Sister In Christ,
