Stay busy!

My first trip to Florida, God gave me the vision of opening up a home for abused and neglected girls. Growing up, I always had a heart for helping orgers and my heart was especially tender towars orphans. It was Disney's Escape to Witchback mountain that inspired my first  idea about starting a home. And though my passion and drive for this project has been on a rollercoaster ; God sent me a teammate with the same dream. Yesterday, we decided that we'd create a camp this summer to fundraise our the girls home! 

 So cheers to women who believe that through Christ you can do anything! I pray that Camp Turn Up is a success that brings us closer to helping many young girls in the future! 

I pray that God keeps us dilligent and helps us make it all the way through! So cheers to hard work and making a difference.

Drive

 

I realized that things Ive accomplished dont mean much because Im not fulfilled. And now that I know this, I begin to make a u-turn to my passion to get on track with my destiny

New Year, New Moves

 

I’ve decided , I’d be REAL with myself this year. It’s my senior year of college and I confessed that I only changed my major for my parents and I hate what I’m studying and ultimately want to just follow my passion. That may have been a tough pill for my parents to swallow but boy am I relieved.  Destiny’s Child once sang, “Ain’t no feeling like being free.”

In this new found freedom, I realized that my dreams all revolve around art and I’m determined to find my purpose! I’d hate to be one of those people living day to day unfulfilled.  I’m excited to start this new journey and this new year.

I have 3 billion thing I want to try before I do so here goes my list… I hope some of this can get done in 2014

I want to record an album- I L O V E to sing and I want to give it a shot

I want to be a cool Youtuber- I tried it once and maybe if I had kept at it, I’d get somewhere

I want to have a successful BLOG- I love writing and I want to get better at it

I want to travel around the world & help people -  I’m truly passionate about it

 

So 2014 here goes nothing!

Giving is always better than Receiving

I am a house mother for a home for abused and neglected children. This ministry cares for 14 different boys and girls who have been removed from their homes. These children have often been victims of abuse and neglect. Though it is a tough situation, my job is to make a difference.

Yesterday we allowed the children to open their presents and the energy in the room was slightly evil. Children were about to cry, children were jealous of what other children received, the children were not very appreciative at all. Out of 13 children there were only 2 thank you's!  My heart was disgusted.  I wanted to drown my disappointment in wine but instead we decided to wake up the next morning and take the children on a little adventure. We took all those extra presents they wouldn't really appreciate and piled them all in a van and made them give their own presents to children who didn't have any. We even took them to pass out things at the homeless shelter. Today was a beautiful day. Hopefully we made someone's day!
