Okay, God has wrecked me.

Prior to me watching that video on Haiti (see 2 posts below) I had a very moving dream, actually it wasn't a dream, it was a very clear strong voice that I heard while I was sleeping. The voice said, "I am the Lord, I am a consuming fire." That was it, but it woke me up at 4 o'clock in the morning and I was unable to go back to sleep.

I spent time in scripture, in prayer and in study on those words that were written on my mind and heart that night, but still I am not so sure I understand. What I do know is that something since then changed in me, I have a strong desire to hear from the Lord in regards to what he would have us to do with the situation of the children (and people) of the world. The people who are suffering, the children who are without. All day I think about it and pray about it, each day God has shown me something new. I am excited to see where God is taking me (and you if you chose to commit with us). I think I will journal the journey.

On Tuesday I had a Dr. appointment that was needed for our homestudy/dossier, at the appointment I spoke to my dear Doctor. about Haiti. I knew she had been with other Dr.'s to 3rd world countries, I asked her about Haiti and told her about the Youtube video I had watched. She shared her experience in Haiti, we stood eye to eye sharing our hearts desire to serve God in bringing comfort to those who suffer, we both were crying. It was an intense God moment, one I will not soon forget. Angelee (my Dr.) gave me the name of a local ministry that packs crates to send to Haiti-God is showing me that he has "others" who also have heard him and are "doing" his work here on earth.

My family and I have commited the next 30 days to praying together about what God would have us do, not the general, but the specific. There are many opportunities to "do something" but my desire is not just to "do something," it is to do exactly what God is calling me to do. Just as he would call you to marry the right man, or for a Pastor to serve in 'a' church, he is a God of specific, a God of order-I want his will, his perfect pleasing will. I want my children to learn to hear his voice and to serve him with all of their hearts.

I thank God for this new opportunity, after all that is what life is all about- Him and doing as he says. Jump into the river of God with me and lets see what he would have-I think we will never be the same again-and that is just what I desire- being consumed by God's spirit-being wrecked for Him.
