After months of stepping into the unknown and choosing a more “questionable” life of obedience, I’m beginning to see the fruit. From unexpected divine appointments to unprecedented collaboration across YWAM Ships worldwide, God is connecting people, multiplying training opportunities, and opening doors we never could have planned—reminding me that when we follow His lead, He does more than we imagine.

Some weeks the weight of responsibility and sacrifice feels heavy, and I find myself wondering what life might have looked like if I had chosen the easier path back home. Yet even in the homesickness and hard days, God keeps reminding me that obedience is worth it. As we train and disciple future crew for the ships ministries, I’m learning again that His strength—not mine—is what sustains this calling, and that everything we do is ultimately for His glory.
