When you are a team captain of a group of people, I do not think they realize how hard it is. There is a lot of preparation and information to get out, that there are times of miscommunication, hurt feelings, etc. You have to get people motivated for your cause to help you out, you have to have a strong support group to get in there and get their hands dirty. Some people like to just show up and that is fine too, but I think they miss all the small details it takes to keep it all going.
This is my 6th year to be a part of our local March of Dimes walk and to be team captain of my own family team. This year has been a little more stressful than years past though. It seems my support group has dwindled and there has been some discord amongst us. I feel like I might be being led into a different direction and I am ok with that. I just know I need to pray on it and make sure it is God talking to me, leading me, and not that of my self.
Don't get me wrong, I have loved doing it and
know that my reward is not here on earth, but with my Heavenly Father. I
know I am making my baby boy proud, too.
I am forever thankful to those who have stood beside my family and have supported us in this great cause. It has been a great way to release some of our grief.
I will keep everyone posted in the future months on what my next endeavor may become.
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight." Proverbs 3:5-6
