Back to Work pt 2

So a couple weeks ago I posted a prayer request for wisdom about possibly going back to work and what that would look like. This is the update on that – I put bullets below the video just so in the future we can remember what is in the video without having to watch the whole thing – though they’re giveaways for what I say PLEASE watch the video! It’s important to me that you hear my heart. Continue reading →

Back to Work?

In my post a month ago, I shared the extensive amount of volunteering I’m doing for PFT. Well, there’s a possibility I may go on staff there. It is unclear whether I’d be able to do part-time (essentially get paid for what I’m already doing and would have been doing anyhow, but having an office at PFT to do it in) or if it will be full-time. Because I’m on the financial board, we are being VERY careful because it is important we go totally by the book. Continue reading →

Let me start by saying thank you for your patience with me. I don’t know what I’d do without you guys – you are such a blessing! This is an update I think I’ve been writing in my head at least in part for a while, so hopefully it will make some sense and help some of you all who have been feeling disconnected from me or the ministry.

Loving the Unlovely- by Stephanie Ozbirn

Recently I had the wonderful opportunity to mentor my oldest daughter in a difficult peer situation. There is a boy in her room who has had a hard family life. He has suffered tragedy at the hands of his mother, been placed in foster care, lost a young sibling to death and shifted finally back around to his father. Another mutual friend of his and my daughter’s, out of obedience to his parents demands, ended his friendship with this young man. Apparently the child’s parents felt like this boy was “undesirable” due to his unfortunate family circumstances to be a friend of their son. The young man mistakenly thought that my daughter was the cause of the ended friendship. He began lashing out at her verbally because of his deep hurt. Their homeroom teacher put a stop to some of the behavior, but he was still hurting and placing the blame on my child. Continue reading →

Been a while since I’ve done a post here, but wanted to do so both to document the web stuff that’s going on as well as the one team update… let me start with that.  Amanda has stepped down from both teams.  Our relationship is TOTALLY fine and she still has a heart for the ministry so it’s not that at all, but as you guys know she’s had a lot going on and so for a variety of reasons, she’s stepping down.

*** As an FYI, this post was sent to Meghan for her to read before I posted this. She has read and given me her approval and blessing to post and submit this to each of you 🙂 ***

I just wanted to post some prayer points that have been on my heart 🙂 With the calender year drawing to a close soon, I’m looking forward to what the Lord has in store for D4Y in 2013! I know I may be jumping ahead, but as Meghan can attest to, I tend to be wired for the “future” in what I see and hear, lol. So, I first prayerfully ask that all of us will take a moment to ask the Father to prepare our hearts, minds, ears, and eyes and that He quicken in each of us what He is speaking to us corporately and individually. I prayerfully say, Father, thank You for what you have done, are doing, and WILL do. You are faithful, just, true, merciful, gracious, and loving and we praise You for it. Let us have ears to hear You…amen. Continue reading →
