Hello!
I have another Update for you. I feel like I have so many things up in the air right now it’s hard to keep track of it all. I just wanted bring you all up to speed on Fundraising. CGA ended in May and I am still very much in need of funds to complete the Program. I am currently $2200 short of my goal for all of CGA.
I will Honest with you, I do not like fundraising. I do not like asking for money. It’s difficult for me. The Hardest part about being a missionary or in full-time ministry( for me anyway) is getting people behind the work that I am doing. It all comes back to a sense of false pride that I carry. That if I ask for help then that means that I have failed. who I am and my worth as a human being. The other side of that coin is a fear of rejection. It makes me feel like the things the Lord has called me to is not worthy of being supported…that I am not worthy of being supported. It’s a battle that I fight every day and one that I will probably continue to fight as long as the Lord keeps calling me to go where He wants me. There is no way around it. There is no shortcut or easy solution. It’s my struggle. The thing that I have to remember is that It isn’t about me.
The whole reason I did the Race and the only reason I did CGA was because of Jesus. He called and I said yes. He invited me to follow Him on an adventure that has and continues to change my Life everyday. I’m walking with Him. He is my cause and my purpose. The way that I have experienced Him the most is when I have been sharing Him with others who need HIm. It has always been and will always be about who Jesus is and what He is doing. Jesus doesn’t need me for anything He wants do. But chose me anyway.
So why did I tell you all this? I guess I just wanted to be vulnerable with you. I wanted to be authentic about my feelings and emotions. I just wanted you to know me. There is more to where this came from and I will share with you more in my next blog.
Thanks for reading! As you just read, I am still fundrasing for CGA. I’m so close. The Lord has provided so much for me already and I am confident He will continue to do so. If 44 people donate $50 each or if 88 people donate $25 OR! If 22 people donated $100 I will be fully funded! Please pray and consider partnering with Him as He continues to call me into new seasons and new adventures. Thank you all for your continued support. I could not be doing this without the blessing of the Lord or your help!
Peace and many, many blessings!
