After I attended She Speaks in 2008, I started submitting articles for publication - and some of them were accepted!! I have to be honest and tell you I was shocked! How could God use my words to help others? I wondered.
Next, He gave me a ministry vision. It was based on Titus 2. The idea is to learn to live a holy life, then teach it to others. My tag line became: Titus 2: Live it, Walk it, Teach it. Besides a new blog I started, Titus 2 In Action, God made it clear to me no more information would be given for a season. So I waited patiently in faith.
In June of this year, I attended She Speaks using the speaking track. Again my BF, Kelly, encouraged me to attend with her. But this time, I went fully expecting to receive all I could from God. And receive I did!
The entire weekend, I felt God's presence strongly on me. He whispered things to me and I believe I gave birth to Titus 2 Ministry. For three years, I was pregnant with the ministry, and now God allowed me to give birth.
Just as a newborn baby has a name but as parents we don't know what he/she will look like or be like when they are full grown, Titus 2 Ministry is a baby and I don't yet know what this ministry will look like or how many people could be encouraged by it when it is fully grown.
I do feel God leading me to start writing more in a focused way, and I believe He is about to release me into my speaking ministry. I will walk in faith as He shows me the next phases for Titus 2 Ministry. I'm excited and would covet your prayers for me as I wait patiently for each new baby step God directs me to take.
Has God shown you your ministry?

Exciting stuff, Sonya. God bless as you follow His leading for your Titus 2 Ministry!
Hey, Sonya. That's so exciting. Yep, good analogy too - like birthing a baby. It is, of course, very similiar. A ministry, a book, a child - they all come forth as new creations with much pain and labor, but it is a labor of love.
May the Lord bless and guide you as you continue to pursue His call on your life. Keep us posted :)
Love,
Patricia
So happy you are finding joy in writing. Keep moving forward, see what God will do with your willing heart and talents.
