1 Timothy 1:7 "For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline."
BE BOLD. I leave for Miami tomorrow morning. My biggest fear is that I will leave the same as I arrived. God has been so faithful in speaking through His Word, through His children, and through His creation. I pray that we have the boldness to step out in faith to what God has called each of us to do.
The night before I left for Haiti, my family prayed with me. Tears rolled down my cheeks. I was fearful that I was not prepared, not equipped enough to teach others about Christ. What do I have that others don't? I HAVE JESUS, isn't that the point?! I feared I hadn't read enough of the Bible. I feared that I didn't spend enough time in prayer. I feared my motivations for coming. God has slowly shown me that He meets us just where we are. He lives in me. I don't have to teach alone. He walks with me. I am not bold because of who I am alone but because of who I am in Christ.
YAY! I will be home tomorrow!
