Leap of Faith

Had you asked me five years ago if I'd ever be working in ministry I would have answered no. But God had another plan for me ... 

For the past twenty years or so I have been writing and re-writing my testimony. Back then I called it "My Story". I somehow always knew that one day I would have the opportunity to share this story with other women. Last Fall, on my birthday, God gave me that gift. He allowed His plan to be fulfilled at a women's conference. As I stood on that stage, in front of a conference hall full of women, I shared how God can take bad situations and make something truly beautiful! He took my beginning, born to a woman raped and abandoned, and has led me to Him; to a savior whose arms are always there to hold me.  He kept me from going deep into depressions, even suicidal thoughts. He kept His still small voice inside me, encouraging me to revise "my story". Preparing me for speaking, encouraging, and ministering. 

So here I am-before you vulnerable-praying God use me and the life He gave me to share His story of how He uses moments of darkness to reveal His beauty...

Ephesians 2:10 For we are His workmanship created in Christ Jesus for good works which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.
