Rookie Status
Listen, people. I have to tell you something. I am a little bit jammed up, and I need your help. Many of you have been following Q24 for over a year now, and we are so thankful for your support. Even though many of us have never met, I know we are all part of the family of God. So I feel comfortable sharing my struggle with you. Here is my problem. I am a rookie who is out of my league! I know when people ask me questions about this upcoming event, I am supposed to know the answers. Except I don’t, because I have never done anything like this before. So while it may seem like I am confidently walking, I’m actually freaking out a little on the inside!
The No Greater Tour kicks off in less than a week. I am beyond excited and cannot wait to see God move in this event. I know He has called us to this task, and I know He will do exceedingly and abundantly more than we can ask or imagine. (Ephesians 3:20)
Even though I know all of these things, there are still so many things I don’t know, which could cause me to come unglued if I don’t keep a tight reign on my thoughts. Here’s a brief glimpse of the craziness rolling around in my head today. What if no one comes? What if everyone comes and we don’t have enough seats. What if we print too many programs, or worse, not enough? What if there is some major thing that needed to be done, and we didn’t do it? What if... I could just go on and on, but you get the picture.
We are blessed to have so many amazing people helping us with the No Greater Love Tour. Some of you have supported us financially. Others hit the ground running, being the hands and feet for Q24 and for Jesus! And while we are beyond thankful for all those things, what we need the most right now is prayer.
So here is how you can help. Please pray with us. Pray that everything we say and do would be pleasing to God. Pray we have thought of and done all the things that need to be done. Pray once we have done our part, we will move out of the way and be amazed by what God is going to do.
Yesterday I was talking to a friend and sharing some of my insecurities. She so wisely reminded me that although I am feeling some kind of way right now, God is NOT a rookie and He knows EXACTLY what He’s doing and what needs to be done! It is our job in life to listen to God’s direction and join Him on His mission. I sure am thankful to be on this QUEST with God, and with you! Thank you for your prayers.
