My plans or God's plans....

I didn't expect to be doing a journey this year. There wasn't a thought about Global Challenge in my mind, but God had other plans. 

One thing that we must realise is that God's plans are better than our dreams. I had other plans for 2019, but it wasn't the right plans. So on the 9th of January, a day before training started, I talked to Louw Burger and Reinhardt Foley and that's where my journey started. Unprepared, nervous and with a sleeping bag the size of a tent I arrived at GLA the next day.

God started to stir my heart just a few days into training and He answered prayers that brought tears of joy. I found myself surrounded by awesome people; people who truly make a difference in this world of ours. After a few talks and prayers God gave me the answer that this is what I'm going to do this year. Again the Lord had me in tears, beacause He is good.

The Lord has guided me to a place where I'm growing spiritually. I've met a bunch of wonderful people who are God fearing. Peace is increasing in my life and I thank God for leading me into this journey.
