In June 2016, our family boarded a plane for Jinja, Uganda. My husband Tim and I took time off from our secular jobs to fulfill a conviction God had pressed into our spirits years prior. We packed our suitcases and prepared our four small children for the more than twenty-four hour journey from North Carolina to Eastern Africa.
In December 2013, Jennifer had given me the book Kisses from Katie. Little did she know, her gift would change the trajectory of my life. Almost nine months after reading that book, God pressed into my spirit to sponsor the drilling of a water well in Africa. We were to take our four children with us to dedicate the well and cast vision in our lives for Him.
Mind you, we did not know anyone in Africa. We did not know anyone who needed a water well. We were confident we did not have the funds to sponsor a water well in Africa. And, we knew our children were too young to drag half-way around the world.
But somehow, God got us to Yes, Lord. And then, everything changed.
And that’s my hope for you. My prayer is God will get you to Yes, Lord.
I believe God is calling me to encourage and equip you through the power of His Word and the leading of His Sprit to say Yes, Lord.
My hope is God will use this site–these posts, to remind you of truths, I’m pretty sure you already know.
But, I also know the busyness of life can distract us from the love we hold dear. I want to meet you during five minutes of your day to remind you of Him. Remind you of the good He has planned for you. To encourage you to walk out your faith. And to equip you to do so through His word.
I want to encourage and equip you to say Yes, Lord when the Spirit comes knocking at the door of your heart. I want to spur you along in your journey to your own well whatever that may look like!
