Stirred NOT Shaken

It amazes me that the more I walk in my call the more secure I am and the less I can be shaken. I am stirred though. I used to let people and situations shake the tar outta me. I was very much run by my emotions and feelings. Now I turn around and look at the "old me" and think ohhh girl you were EXHAUSTING!!!! I need to apologize to EVERYONE I was doing life with at that point. I let my people pleasing fear dictate all my responses, emotions and honestly most of my decisions. It's soo embarrassing to have to admit that at my current age. :) I'm glad God didn't give up on me when I had given up on myself.

I am now a part-time Val's House Employee. I am serving as the Executive Director. It's almost surreal to even say those words out loud!!! My heart and passion are to do what I am currently doing!! I am "mending hearts and molding legacies"!!! The years it's taken for this dream to finally be  realized astounds me!!! There have been YEARS that I wondered if I was just hearing God wrong or He gave me a passion that would never be realized. But I KNOW that's not God's character!! It's soooo fun to be "getting" to do this. Thank You Lord for the opportunity!!! 

We started the new Beth Moore study "Children of the Day" and ohhhh my geeze it's AWESOME!!! Beth Moore does what my heart and soul cry out to do!! She teaches and inspires people to go deeper with the Lord. She STIRS every ounce of my being to know the Lord in a deeper more intimate way!! Watching her on the screen my insides just kept screaming "I want to do this" and the Lord said,"you ARE doing this"!!! I just cried and cried!! He also told me I am going to be writing curriculum. WHAT THE WORLD???? I have NO clue of even how to begin. This is stirring me soooo hard. This is such a new season for me but I am trusting Him with every ounce of my being. So I hope you will buckle up and go along for the ride with me.
