| << That's me. I'm quite the messy work in progress...and me and my messy self will be in Australia in exactly two months. I've seen God do tremendously big things in my life the last twenty, almost twenty-one years, and He's been moving in truly mysterious ways the last couple of months. I'm His work in progress and I trust that His view of "progress" is best, even when I think it's the furthest from that. Sometimes this trust comes easily, but usually I have to force it out of my ever stubborn and shamefully conceited heart. I hope to encourage and challenge you as I share bits and pieces of my story throughout my journey to Australia, and I pray you will do the same for me. |
PLEASE do not hesitate to scold me when I am boasting in myself. I'm sure you will have to do this, because I am very prone to the flesh monster of pride and selfishness. I am also the weakest warrior when it comes to battling insecurity, but it is my goal to turn to the Lord these next few months in order to put to rest every last fear and insecure thought that passes through my mind.
In my soul I sense that Australia will be the place I find myself. Although I am fairly certain of who I am, where I want to go in life, and the few things I am good at, as well as the long list of things I am bad at, I have trouble owning these things because of all my silly insecurities. I should have no problem being secure because Jesus Christ is at the center of my being, but I don't always live like that. So often I forget that His power is inside of me, and it is my prayer that this long and terrifying journey to Australia will lead me claim and exercise His power daily.
Please help me! The body works when all its members are healthy. Join alongside me and bring health to my bones as well as yours. We can learn to fight our insecurities together and be the sort of people that boldly enter into any and every circumstance with the confidence and power of the Lord Jesus Christ!
So listen graciously, correct lovingly, and share openly. And don't forget, if I post anything that seems to be off track, tell me!
Together, in surrender, we can be sure of who we are in Christ.
