Hey there. You may have come across my blog and wondered who I am. On the surface, you need to know that I love Jesus, have a passion for victims of trafficking, and want to live my life, serving the Creator of the Universe. Of course, I am going to be writing, in order to express more about the "Greatness of our God." (If you have never heard Natalie Grant's song: "Greatness of our God"...youtube it..It will be worth 3 mins. in your life.) But I also want to open up a little more and talk about this passion: Anti-Trafficking.
For quite some time now, I have felt the Lord leading me to work
with victims of human trafficking. Last summer, 2010, my friend, Erin and I were able to embark on a God-given journey to research this issue, in the country of Moldova.
While in Moldova, we met with individuals from different viewpoints on trafficking. Most of the people we met were Christian's and either worked with prevention or in one case, restoration of victims. This experience was one of growth and knowledge, being guided by individuals who have been involved with restoring victims for years. It began to 'fan the flame' in my heart to become serious about how I can be involved.
At this point, I am living in New Orleans, getting married in December(2011), and am pursuing a counseling degree at Seminary. The Lord has mysterious ways of working out things for His glory! And I am excited to see what He will do. Besides, all of the glory is His anyway. I'm just here to represent Him on this earth.
