a higher calling!!

Have you ever had this calling on your life and didn't know where you needed to go, or what to do about it? Well for yrs know I have had the Ukraine on my heart. I searched about places to help the Ukraine. I am the kind of person who is a hands on type. I am not good at sponsoring someone or to just give to missions. I have always felt the desire to go places. When I strayed from the lord for a couple yrs I felt that I couldn't be that person. That I wasn't meant to be a missionary or go on missions trips. Mainly because I didn't have a strong enough faith to not fall away from the lord. My husband is a great man and will stand behind me in anything I do. Which I think he learned from me. I have stood behind him for the last 10 yrs. And never really did anything for myself. I felt like he should be the one to be the leader of our home. So I just let him, And I also felt that if his relationship with the Lord wasn't strong that how can I go and minister to people. I feel that it must be the devil putting me down. Putting doubts in my mind so I won't do what God whats me to do. Yes I have a higher calling in my life as a wife and a mom. But what about the desire I have to help the Ukraine? And when I was piecing everything together I found that it was for Ukraine Orphans.
I know that may seem odd. But I have found organizations that help just the Ukraine Orphans. And God has lead me to find quite a few. And narrowing down the one to be part of was hard. I want to help them ALL. But for the time being I am going to help bridges of faith. They are in Alabama. I have been following them for yrs. When I moved away from Alabama. I knew one thing that when we decided to move back. I wanted to be part of bridges of faith. I love how they bring Ukraine Orphans over to the USA and bring them to Alabama to stay for one month. Teach them all kinds of things. And show them the LOVE of God. Loving them and showing them a new culture and pray that they would find there forever family. My second desire has been to adopt a Ukraine orphan. I don't know when that will come together or if it ever will. But I know that God has a plan for my life. And I will follow where he leads me. I know I am not traditional. I don't go only where a certain denominational church goes. I have been in ALL different types of churches and denominations I go where I feel a strong desire. A strong pull in that direction. I know that sounds funny. But that is me. Even thou I am a member at a Assembly of God church. I don't feel weird going outside and helping other organizations

.SO I am going to be going on a missions trip to Ukraine this yr. March 21- 29th and I can't wait to see what God has for me there. I know my family will miss me for those 9 days. I do have a great fill in as you may say. Memere (grandmoma) coming to take care of the kids. I am still looking for a fill in or partner for my business when I am away. If you are interested in that please talk to me about it! Its a AT HOME position and I know that is not for everyone but it is my life. And that would be a big relief for me if I found a partner. So I can go on my trip knowing that every part of my life was taken care of. So I can minister to there precious orphans in the Ukraine. If you have read this whole post you have read deep into my heart!! And I thank you. That means you are truly one of my fans. And I thank you. I will share more with you about my trip and what God has given me. I hope you have been blessed reading this.

Have a great Day and I pray you are blessed.
