Well Im at it Again!

Here I go. Stepping on out there. Hoping God will use me to impact the lives of orphans. I'm so scared that no one will listen. I'm so scared that even if people read what I write, that they will shake their head and move on and do nothing. However, Im refusing to let fear get in the way. As I think about doing this, I think about Jeremiah. He was scared too. And if you dont know what God told him, I'll include the passage at the bottom of the post. I'm really excited to have something to focus on again. I've been through a fire and the fire is still burning. I'm choosing to be faithful even in the face of this fire. The love of Christ burns in my heart and I cant contain it. Obedience is all Im after. I just hope that this sweet child that Im advocating for will be eternally blessed by having people donate to her account and by having someone step forward to take her into their family. So what am I up to exactly... Im a Reece's Rainbow Prayer Warrior! Jenna is an orphan with special needs. Apparently she can do something with assistance like stand, walk, and sit up. She will be three in June. According to the Reece's Rainbow site, she will be moved soon to a care center where she will recieve therapies to help her with her delays. That's good news because many orphans do not have access to therapy. However, SHE NEEDS THE LOVE OF FAMILY!
Jeremiah 1:17 But you, dress yourself for work;[a] arise, and say to them everything that I command you. Do not be dismayed by them, lest I dismay you before them. ESV
