Where you I go..

This past Sunday was amazing to be sent out by Church Alive.
Sharing a piece of what is going on then everyone praying for me.
Then to the 3,4, and 5 year olds who pray over me. That was awesome!

I was encouraged but sometimes I feel like people see this girl who keeps going places but they do not see her at home...
I seem like courage but many times I feel like weakness.
I sometimes display confidence but have many questions.
This girl who has waited but not the one that wonders and sometimes even wanders.

Sometimes, I just want to go back.
I am tired.
I am scared.
But I am not alone (though i may feel like I am sometimes)
I am not this hard shell who needs no support. Although sometimes I want to be because it can hurt to love and be loved.
And where He goes, I want to go.
This takes going into brokenness and suffering. Not just with people across the world, but also the ones right next to you.
But this also takes vulnerability, embracing your limitations, weaknesses and going even without fully knowing. Or staying and trusting and walking faithfully.


Will you join me?
