Just. Dive. In.

I took a leap of faith today. It felt a lot like jumping off a cliff having no idea what is below.

I booked a flight to training camp.

I have no idea where all of this money is going to come from, but I know two things:

1.) God is good.

2.) I am called to go on this journey.

Because I know these two things, I know that some how, all of these funds will be raised, because God will provide it.

It might take a lot of time, effort, work, and sacrifice, but I know that some how, it’ll all come together.

Is it scary?

YES. If I told you I had no fear, it would be a lie. However, God has given me courage, and it overcomes that fear every time it starts to creep up.

I keep digging into scripture, into truth, into God’s promises, and I know that somehow, this will all work out. I will choose to cling to hope and faith because God doesn’t go back on his promises.

“…do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” –Philippians 4:6-7

Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it?
I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.”
–Isaiah 43:19

Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us…”–Ephesians 3:20

I don’t have new news on the student loan situation. I don’t know what is going to happen. I just know that God is going to provide whether or not I am able to postpone them. $6K is a lot of money to come up with on top of the $2K I’m planning for spending money and the $18K for the trip itself. But my God is a big God and money isn’t really an issue for Him. It’s easy to get trapped in the anxiety of it all, but I’m trying my hardest to stay focused on Him and not on what I’m needing. He already knows, and He knew when I applied, when I was accepted to do the Race. So I’ll take peace from that, and know that, and I’ll keep listening as He continues to call me deeper, because I keep hearing this: Just. Dive. In.
