Bloom Where You Are Planted

So I sit at my computer thinking I have no idea what to type this morning. I'm already past drained and it's not even noon yet. I've cried many tears this morning for my sons but for people God has put in front of me lately. I've been looking into people's eyes and I can see the pain they feel. It makes me so sad and angry!!! Angry that Satan is trying to steal their joy and destroy their lives. ENOUGH ALREADY!! If these people don't have the energy to kick his butt then I will do it for them. I know I've said many times before that my passion is to help women heal and God has opened a huge door for that to happen. And I am going to take this opportunity and run with it. I will be mentoring one on one with women as well as having groups for teenage girls and groups for women. I want women to heal in all areas of their lives and to find their true identity. Their identity before life happened. Some women are blessed to have a great life, but many have had things happen that have caused them to lose sight of their true selves. And I want to help them find it.
God has given me a beautiful place to do all of this. And there is so much potential. I am ready and willing. I just keep reminding God that I want to have fun along the way. He spoke to me last summer about helping women heal from the inside out and he has provided me the tools due to my own past and trust in Him as well as friends that will help with the beauty on the outside. How awesome is God?
He has also been showing me a way to stretch and exercise with worship music that has helped me to relax and a way of being intimate with Him throughout the day. I want to teach women how to do the same thing.
I'm not saying all of this to toot my own horn but for you to imagine the possibilities that are inside of you. What could God do through you if you were to dream big? He calls every single one of us. I know of women in our church that do daycare and I see their compassion for children and know they are making a difference in ways I never could. Give me teenagers and adults any day....but throw me in a room with a bunch of little ones and I'm looking for the nearest exit. The same with teachers and stay at home Moms. We all are exactly where we are supposed to be at this moment in time. God asks us to take our positions or places of employment and make a difference. As the saying goes, "Bloom where you are planted". Don't worry about needing to be somewhere else to help people around you. Start where you are at and see how it changes your heart to do the bigger things. You are born for this. Don't ever doubt it. Believe and know that God is waiting and willing to take you through every step. You are never alone. Dare to pray for your heart's desire and see what happens. That's what I did and I am excited beyond words. Like I've always said, if God can do this with a person like me, He can most certainly do the same or more for you.

“Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.” 1 John 4:11-12 (NIV)
