I have officially been back on the World Race for 10 days.

Holy cow.

Why would I do this again?

What was I thinking? Or was I even thinking?

These questions have been on the forefront of my mind since I stepped on the plane that would start this journey. Questioning the Lord because this seems like the craziest step of faith I have taken so far. But it has also felt like the most correct step I have ever taken.

Weird how that works, huh?

I know the wrestle that comes along with the race. I know it will challenge most everything I believe. It will stretch me more than I would ever would choose to be stretched. And even with that knowledge all I feel is reassurance that this is where I am suppose to be. That peace that transcends all understanding that the bible talks about has never felt as real as it does right now.

The freedom that has come along with the peace is incredible and something I can’t even attach the right words to.

It feels right.

But the thing that has been the glue to this whole peace and freedom besides the Lord is the squad.

The men and women of Gap L have shown me more about love, grace, peace, passion, and hunger for the Lord than I expected they would in 10 days. The way they are already fighting for each other and pointing each other back to God is incredible. Not to mention the amount of break through that they have each began to step into in a 10 days span.

Dang. It’s insane.

I am in constant awe that the Lord trust me and has blessed me to walk with these men and women for 9 months. It honestly brings me to tears of joy each time I think about it. The Lord trust me to love, challenge, cry with, and point Gap L back to Him. But He also trust Gap L to do that for me and the rest of leadership. It’s insane to think that each of these men and women hold something of the Lord that only they can teach.

So why am I doing the race again?

Because these men and women have stolen my heart already and they are worth it.
