Safe Space
You know when you have a calling in your life, it gets really easy to say, "this is my calling." Over time we tend to lose sight of the importance of that calling. Welp...my calling is to work with Jr. Higher's. That calling has been redefined after spending a weekend with 230 of them in Lake Geneva, WI. I feel like I haven't been called to work with Jr. Higher's, but to do life with them! I feel like I was totally broken for them, and now understand what it means to do battle for them. I have never experienced 200+ kids worshiping our Father the way they did. Every one's arms were raised, jumping, dancing, weeping over the breath taking presence of the Holy Spirit. It was an experience that my words will never do justice. And when it came time for the ministry time, the kids did not look to the leaders for direction. They turned to the person next to them and started praying on their own. Praise God for the mighty strength, faith, and passion that comes from the oh so very awkward Jr. Higher.

My precious Rebekah. You have always made me so very proud and when I read this it makes me cry! Dad and I prayed for you all to be able to see what the Lord had for you to do for Him, and it is not very often that we really can say we are doing that! I praise the Lord for having given me the kids He did! My life has been forever blessed!!! I love you! Mom
