Did you know that May is Foster Care Awareness month? You may wonder what a running camp blog & foster care have in common? I am the Director of Development for The Jim Ryun Running Camp and I AM A FOSTER MOM! :) While everyone is not called to be a foster parent, just as we are not all called to be doctors, teachers, nutritionists, etc - I want to challenge you to think about what calling God has on your life. Is the life that you are living super comfortable and not challenging? Then I would assume your life is boring (LOL)! While God gives us so many wonderful things to enjoy in life (James 1:17), He also calls us to an exciting adventure with Him that causes us to lean in and gain our strength, courage & endurance from Him. Many people say to me they could never be a foster mom and my answer is you are right, I cannot be a foster mom either. Every day I trust the Lord to give me strength, courage & endurance to be a blessing. Recently, a member of my church asked if he could feature me on the cover of the magazine he publishes. I said as long as I could speak freely about my faith, fostering and (yes) running camp, I would do it! I am excited to share with you the article. Please click here to read. To the glory of God I hope this article blesses and encourages you to live BOLDLY for the Lord!
Looking forward to seeing you soon at Camp!
Love,
Catharine
