I alone can cause of ripple....together we WILL cause a wave

Hello EVERYONE!  Sorry its been forever and a day.  We had some computer problems, internet problems and then I went and got a full time job.  Doing some hair, managing some girls...again.
Beyond that....well lets just see I have been searching for doors to be open, and windows no longer shut.  It all started with an electric circuit from RVC's Chick Night (River Valley Church, Apple Valley Mn)....Many women left that night full of CHANGE...Many women left ready to take on the fight (whichever the cause that touched their heart), and still many left with wounds opened (again)...Some of us got together.  We talked.  We met.  We opened our wounds to each other.  All of us asking...what can we do?  Who can we help?  We were still 'high' so to speak, about Nancy Alcorn's Ministry.  We were on fire to HELP...HELP...HELP.  We wanted to serve.  We wanted to rescue.  We need to share.  Share our past.  Our time.  Our finances.  We wanted to let those who were lost, alone, scared, hurt....we wanted the 'untouchable' to know we all had the same experiences...but we have found help.  We have been healed.  We have God.
  My heart breaks for those who think its too late.  They are the lost we so badly want to reach.  This is the reason why we have our 'files' (caseworker file of the what behind the why...if that makes sense?).  This is the reason why we as a small group of women have all walked different lives.  This is our story.  We were unwed moms, drug addicts, alcoholics, abused, neglected, abandoned, molested, betrayed, stolen, raped....Lost.  Forgotten.  Until someone told us otherwise.  For some of us, someone 'rescued' us.  Someone in our life, told us we were loved by them and by God.   It could of been a stranger, or a loved one.  Someone took the time to hold us in our darkest hour and just love us.   And through that, we saw the love of our God.  HOW AWESOME IS THAT?  By knowing my God could love ME, with all I have done in my life.  All the sins I have done.  All the hurt I have brought.  HE loves me.  Me.  I just need to turn  to HIM, and absorb that free flowing happy glowing LOVE.  You don't have to do anything.  Just Love Back, but you know what...its when you are ready.  HE is patient.  HE will be there when you are ready and even when you are not.
So WHY then does my new found group of friends have such problems finding an open door to help?  To start.  So many politics, and I get that.  We need to protect those who are in programs.  So inspiration hit us.  We are going to do something on our own.  We are going to start an outreach for Women.  The women we once were.  Totally LOVING HOPE 360! Big huge shout out and hug to that awesome organization.  Totally inspired by that website and organization....Maybe you will see something like that in our future.  An outreach to reach the untouchable, unloveable.  The scared.  The Lost.
My friends and I have met a couple times.  And you know when you are on the right path, because that is when the enemy attacks.  But we are armored up (thanks for that AWESOME series Pastor Rob and RVC)  and ready for battle.  We have such BIG plans. 
You know when God created Man, HE realized...Man was not complete, so he created Woman.  We are created in HIS image.  We create.  We pass this love down and down and down.  It is in us.  So as sisters, we need to reach each other.  We need to have those open arms.  That grace that God has given us.  We need to put our iphones down, get off facebook and reach out to each other.  Start to put the judging beside.  Don't turn your nose up and look away.  This is GOD staring you in the FACE.  These are his children too.  You have the capability to serve.  To talk.  To Love these women.  Just do it.  I am not just talking financially.  Anyone can write a check or toss money in a bucket.  I am saying love a sister like our God loves you.  Can you imagine the endless joy HE feels when we do things like that?  Don't you want your Father to be proud of you? 
The enemy will let you know when you are winning...because he will stir things up in you.....thats when you know you are on the right track.  When the enemy distracts you.  Puts thoughts into your head or others.  He caused the path to be muddled.
I can cause a little ripple in the tide....but if we all stand up...together we will cause a wave.  A wave we should of started years ago.  So ACT.  If you don't know where to go...what to do...we are too!  It starts with one person.  One person like Chris Caine who takes on the sex traffic crime bosses.  Who isn't afraid to stand up to their power.  Because she has a stronger power in her Savior, our God.  Be the Nancy Alcorn who opens doors to all types of women who need healing.  She has built a fantastic ministry.  And it all started with one little thought, one little action. 
We need to serve.  Stop serving ourselves.  Feel the stir and begin the walk.
Love you guys...so much!
