37. I Got the Call! 12.10.19

37. Last night I received the call that I knew in my heart I would get, I just didn’t know how or when. Late yesterday evening I was blessed beyond measure with an opportunity to join my very first mission trip to Honduras!!! I will be gone January 17th-25th as part of a team of 22 amazing individuals. During this time we will be breaking into groups and having meetings at 20 churches as well as doing street outreach and anything else we can do to forward the kingdom of the Lord.
When I was introduced to Set Free Ministries this trip was already planned out with hotel and travel booked. There wasn’t a possibility to just add myself to this trip no matter how much my heart pleaded for me to be there. I could only attend if the Lord made a way for me. Last night that way was made with someone on the team backing out of the trip. I received the call and the first words out of Kevin’s mouth were “No matter what I say, you have to say yes.” I knew with that sentence that a spot had opened up and my spirit jumped into my throat with joy and I probably busted his ear drum screaming!
I am still crying off and on with joy, praise, and awe in what the Lord will do for us. He loves us all so so much and he simply desires a place in your heart and your life as your savior in return for his death on the cross.
The short notice of this means that there was very little time to save up for this opportunity. If you feel led to donate to this mission trip, you can message me and I’ll send you my paypal information. I might be sharing a fundraiser here too but I’m still praying about that. Right now the cost has been covered for the last minute plane ticket and luckily I was able to be on the same flights as everyone else!! However, I would love to pay that person back as much as possible before I go.
The real help I need right now is in finding dresses that go below the knee but can be worn in 80 degree weather. Everyone who knows me knows I haven’t really worn a dress ever. If you are out and see anything let me know! I’ll be shopping at Goodwill and Salvation Army because they usually have different sections no matter what season it is.
My breath is taken away by the Glory of our Lord and Savior!!!
If you would like your house cleaned for the holidays let me know! I think it may be time to move forward in starting my cleaning service up so I can begin to work for myself next year.
As always I am beyond thankful for everyone who reads my posts, sends me encouraging messages and for those who pray for me. I am blessed to have each and every one of you in my life.
Waymaker, Miracle Worker, Promise Keeper, Light in the darkness, My God, That is Who YOU Are!!!
❤️🙏🏼✝️

258. Is Jesus Enough?

Is Jesus enough for you? What if we never arrive? What if like Moses you wander in the desert for years only to have the Joshua generation be the one to enter the promised land? The land that was originally promised to Abraham 42 generations prior. 42 generations it took to fulfill that promise.  What if you’re generation 37, or 16, or 5 or 41. What if your family is this close to the breakthrough of the promised land that you’ve been praying for, and you give up now? What if you take the bait of the enemy and quit before you reach the finish line? Or worse yet, you give up, erase the efforts of every generation before you, and your kids or grandkids never meet Jesus at all.  This is your reminder…don’t fall for it. Same evil tactics different worldly package. All designed to kill, steal and destroy.  Satan doesn’t have to take your life if he can take your peace, wrap you in groundhog’s days, and have you spread that woe is me, lack of joy under a “Christian” label, like...

244. Out of the Wilderness

  The Lord is calling you. He's calling you deeper. He's calling you higher. He's calling you to become more of His and less of what this world calls "Christian" and gets away with. He's calling you, to gather all the broken pieces of the past and He is leading you, to help you put them back together again.  This morning during worship the Lord led me to an open field. There was a half broken down stage like the aftermath of a weekend music festival. I was walking the disheveled grounds kicking through trash and broken down campsites. So much mess left behind without a care or thought in the world. Our pasts can feel the same. So much junk, so much carnage, so much chaos left behind.  I grabbed a large trash bag and began cleaning. As I continued to gather things up, the ground was transforming. The season was shifting. The air felt lighter, the leaves in the surrounding trees began to change and a fresh autumn breeze began to blow through the field. As the la...

250. Stay North Ash

  Testimony time! Change is hard for some people, especially during the holidays. While many others handle change with ease, I tend to handle it like a cat thrown in a bathtub. Settling in here hasn’t been much different. So much change.  In many areas it’s been a blessing and the perfect fit, but I’d be lying if I said being this far away from Leah wasn’t the hardest thing I’ve ever done. While she’s amazingly independent, I always thought she’d be away at college before I couldn’t just stop by if she ever needed me for anything.   This has led to me questioning the Lord on a lot of things, and led to me wondering if us moving to Morgantown would be a good fit for the next season the Lord has coming up over the horizon.   How many of you have experienced something similar? You pray, the Lord answers, you obey, then you’re in it. You’re smack dab in the middle of what you prayed for and it ends up challenging you to grow in ways you never thought possible.  You ...
