After my sweet Logan was born I had no clue where God wanted me to advance His kingdom. I got down on my knees and prayed, "God what do you want me to do, where do you want me?" I then went to the shower and he answered my prayer down to the visual of what he wants. God told me He wants me to open a girls home. The bad of the bad. He even showed me the floor plans of the buildings on the property. I have feared the past couple of years I wasn't up for this and why me. But I am no longer fearing my capabilities.
A few months after this vision God put it on my heart to also open a house that will be called Paiyton's House. This will be a home where women can go that are pregnant and have their babies. They will not have to pay a dime but they will be giving up their baby for adoption instead of having an abortion.
About 3 months ago I was watching a special on CNN about child prostitution. There is really no where for these children to go except Juvy. These children aren't criminals they are victims. I want to have another house completely seculded from the rest of the land for these children.
Sometimes I feel that this is way to much for just me and I am right. The Lord has been placing people in my life to help with this journey. I will have a full staff after opening this. But first I must go to school. I start school on May 17th. I am nervous but I know now with the Lord on my side it will be good! I have an estimated open date of 10 years of now. I will complete a Bachelors in Social Work and Masters in Psychology. If God allows a disortation to get my PhD then I will follow that but right now I am just planning on becoming a certified counselor.
When I met my husband and told him all these visions he completely supports me and encourages me to follow this. It was funny a couple years ago someone asked me who was I going to get to build this and I said I'm not worried the Lord will send me a carpenter. I didn't really know what I was saying but it was a prophetic word.
I thank the Lord for my blessings and beautiful friends He has given us. Thank you all for choosing to do life with us!
