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?

Dreaming
"I feel like I'm going to burst!" said my big sister. "God wants me to share something with you, but I've never done this before so here goes: You are about to move into the ministry you were created for." She said to me.
I'm a wife and homeschool mom to SIX children. I thought. I'm sure I already know what my calling is.
She continued, "You are going to see many doors open to you and you'll think, 'this is weird' but walk through them." She finished.
"Okay then, thanks?" I said to my sister.
The year was 2008. My entire life was consumed with homeschooling six beautiful children, and loving on my husband. But much of that was about to change.
When someone prophecies over you, it's hard to know what to think. In the past, it has been a confirmation of something already in my heart, but this time was strange. It was as if God was telling me to prepare for change - but with no clue what to look for. I began to pray for wisdom.
Within a week, my close friend told me she started a blog. I had never heard of a blog and asked her to explain it to me. After checking hers out and realizing it didn't cost any money, I quickly started one. How fun! I thought. A place to write my thoughts. I began growing my blog and writing, writing, writing.
Next, my friend invited me to attend a writing conference with her called She Speaks. After looking into the conference I found it to be full. With nothing to lose, I put my name on the waiting list and prayed. "Lord, if it's your will, please let the doors open."
The next day, I had an email sitting in my inbox saying I was in. That was too fast! I hadn't even mentioned it to my husband yet! Prompted by my friend and the Holy Spirit, I called him at work and told him everything. To my surprise he told me to sign up!!!
Suddenly, I remembered the prophecy given by my sister. Writing doors were opening up and I kept thinking, "This is weird." Now I wondered what was next...
