I will speed my life bringing the Kingdom of Heaven to
Earth.
Jesus said…
“And I will give you the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven. Whatever you
forbid on earth will be forbidden in heaven, and whatever you permit of earth
will be permitted in heaven�
-Matthew 16:19-
I’ve been home from the World Race for a few days shy of a
month.
I have still not spent a month in one place. I’ve been
visiting family and friends in South Georgia. I’ve visited my brother, sister
in law, amazing nephew, and friends in Atlanta and I’ve been to Tennessee for
about 8 days serving at a World Race training camp.
The question of the month, believe it or not, has been, “What’s next?�
The summer will be a time of rest, service, sharing, rest,
loving, catching up, prayer, rest and did I mention rest?
God is in the midst of teaching me what rest looks like in
this season while still being active and still being who He’s called me to be.

You
may or may not know that for as long as I can remember I’ve always had a heart
to minister to women in some form or capacity. And I hate seeing people live in
bondage whether it is literal or spiritual. I like to dive into the messy,
broken, hurting places with women out of every walk of life.
And
you may or may not be aware of the growing epidemic of the modern day slave
trade…
An estimated 14,500 to 17,500 women and children are
trafficked into the United States each year. (humantrafficking.org)
Human trafficking happens in our own
backyards.
As well as all around the
world…it happens in 161 countries actually…
It is estimated that
there are 27 million slaves in the world right now.
Isaiah 61 calls us to “proclaim that captives will be
released and prisoners will be freed.�
This is what I will
do!
I don’t know exactly what it looks like but I know God will
show me. I am praying about a couple of things for the Fall but regardless of
whatever or wherever the Lord leads me in the Fall I know it will involve
abolition, justice, battle, and the Holy Spirit!
The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is upon me and I say that
it is unacceptable that while we
sleep in our comfy beds and homes each night 27 million of our brothers and sisters are living in bondage and what they feel like are hopeless situations.

Once again I cannot thank you all enough for your continued
support, encouragement, and prayers as God continues to walk me along a journey
that I could have never imagined for myself. It’s not about us, it’s about Him
but He loves us so much that He calls us to partner with Him. And I want to
thank each of you for doing just that over this past year and for some of you
years.
Please join me in prayer as I seek the Lord on what exactly
and where exactly He’s leading me. If you get any words from the Lord I am
ready and willing to receive them.
Also, if you have a church or group of any kind that you
would like me to speak at about the World Race, missions, or the call that God
has place on my life you can email my at: [email protected]
Thank you all!
