Emotional Preparation
WHY go? How long will you be gone?
I just want to obediently say yes to God and see how long He blesses me there.
I just want to obediently say YES. My wholehearted YES. No reservations. Just look forward, running on faith, love and on purpose FOR purpose – the Gospel of Jesus Christ!
So, how am I preparing?
One way, emotionally.
Here are four questions Adventures in Missions challenged me to take time and pray and reflect on. Now, I feel like its time to share my answers.
1.) What are the problems, challenges, and opportunities God has called us to?
To be His hands and feet to His people (lost & saved). To be His light. I want to show people that God does still work and act in this world through His people.
2.) What are we up against?
Culture. Society. Progression movement? Spiritual warfare – Hell & Satan and his demons. FEAR.
3.) What are some potential solutions or actions?
Partnerships, getting involved, taking action, praying daily and in the moments
4.) Why has God called you to Adventures?
He knows my design and purpose. God has specifically been preparing me and REAP to partner and serve one another. I have been connected with Adventures since I went on the World Race in 2012. REAP is the Nicaraguan base for Adventures. REAP and Adventures have a good relationship with one another, where I know I will be served the way God wants me served as a missionary.
I have a fiery passion to go into the unknown/out of my comfort zone. I love learning about different cultures other than my own. I want to try life and ministry in another country. I’ve done ministry in America, now I want to see what God can do through me in another country.
