The Credit Countess
Ok this is the story. I have been praying for the longest time for God to reveal to me what my minister is. I know it was a women's ministry for the simple fact that I had been though so much and I knew that it was a reason for all of my trails. So anyways, I had been praying and praying.
In the meantime my son started with this afrian dance/drum company that an councilman had started 20 years ago and as always the kids just geared to me. I am one of those people that believe that it takes a village to raise a child. I don't take any nonsense from them but I love them anyways.
So this week as I was in my pray/praise closet ( my shower) the Lord said this is your ministry. I'm like huh. He said the young ladies in this group is your ministry. You can be that mother/big sister that they need. Now this is the whole thing. I DON'T EVEN LIKE CHILDREN . I am the first to say that the youth ministry is not my calling and what is my calling - YOUNG LADIES MINSTRY. I know that these young ladies need that time to themselves that they can talk and be free and have that ear to listen. I also realized that all of my son's friends gear to me and I have about 10 children that calls me mom so I was being prepared for this. The lLord showed me that it's not the grown woman that I need to tell my story to but the young women before they go though all that I have gone though.
Of course doubt starting going though my mind. Last night at practice I talked to the councilmen and he was like that is a great idea. I also talked to one of the young ladies and she is really excited. Now I have to wait on the Lord to show me how to fund this project and where to go from there. I am thinking that we will go out once a month ( skating, bowling, dinner, movie, shopping, etc) and just relax without the guys being there all in the business. Where we live there isn't a lot to do but I know that this will work and branch out.
Just keep me in prayer.
Oh and Big Sis Simmie, remember you said that I was being pushed well here it is and Lord knows what else to come.
