Hello all!!! First and foremost I give all Glory to God the Father, His son Jesus, our savior and the Holy Spirit who is our helper!
My name is Amber Crosby. I am 28 years of age and born and raised in Tyler Tx. I am a minister, usher, praise and worship leader, sister, friend, and daughter. I head two ministries God has given me for 3 years now. The first being a singles ministry called Women Building Confidence in Christ and the other called the Agape Movement-in which I hit the streets and reach out to those in need. I give them care packages which include basic necessities and offer prayer. I thank you for visiting my blog!!!! I am overwhelmed with joy and gratefulness so much that even as I type these words I tear up at the thought of where God has brought me from. I would have never thought that I would be preparing for a mission trip. Who would have thought? Not me of course but God knew all along.
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end Jeremiah 29:11
Even from my beginning, he knew. He knew me even before my parents knew me and even before their parents knew them.
Jeremiah 1:4-5 The word of the Lord came to me saying “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, And before you were born I consecrated you.
When I first came to Christ. I thought I had to “catch up”. I felt so behind everyone else in the ministry. I was a babe in Christ. Drinking milk but trying to eat the meat too and choked sometimes. Now I laugh at the thought of me trying to catch up to everyone else and learn to embrace where I am and know that He anointed me for such a time as this. I started where I needed to start. God knew when it was time to draw his daughter unto him. There is no rush in this. I just need to remain humble under God’s mighty hand and he will exalt me in due time and believe.
My faith in God has been challenged and grown a great deal even during this first two weeks that I have been accepted to the race. I just believe in God. I know that God does not do anything halfway. I know that God is the God who provides and where he guides he will provide.
Isaiah 58:11 And the LORD shall guide you continually, and satisfy your soul in drought, and make fat your bones: and you shall be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.
God knew what I needed before I even asked Matthew 6:8. He knows the amount that I need to fund this mission trip and I believe that he will supply all my needs according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus according to Philippians 4:19.
I ask that you guys stand in prayer with me and for me during this time. I ask that you show your support by sowing and believing God with me, for me and also for yourself. Believing that as you sow into me that it will be sown back into you. Give and it shall be given unto you, good measure, pressed down, and shaken together and running over, shall men give unto your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again in accordance with Luke 6:38.
Thank you again – Amber
