the Lord's plans prevail.

Here are some hightlights since the last time I blogged:

Built a snowman....or snow tower. Not to mention, I am surprisingly surviving winter out here in the West! It has been pretty mild, praise the Lord!















Bought a flower! An orchid named Lucy. Apparently they don't need much water, so I somewhat drowned her. But the lady I live with is reviving it. :)

















The Lord called me back to Ghana this summer!!!!!!! He has also opened many doors for me to speak and share to raise funds here in CO. I laid the financing part of the trip at His feet, because I told Him that I was minding my own business when He called me back to Ghana ;) He has been faithful, as always.












Skyped with my family over Thanksgiving! That was a HOOT!!! bahahah, too funny.












So, it's been a really awesome season here in Colorado. November to now I've been investing as much as I can into Feed My Sheep homeless center. I've started a bible study with the women and have been teaching the lesson on Sundays. They have truly become like a family to me, and best friends, even though they are twice my age, haha. I've gained about 30 uncles! Especially when they found out that I'm going to Africa this summer, can you imagine the lectures I've gotton! Of course, along with caring for people, comes heart ache as well. When they hurt, I hurt. When they are sad, I am sad. My heart goes out to the ones stuck in their pasts and their mistakes, addictions and failures. But when one gets a job, or rejoices, we all rejoice!!!

And so thankfully, my little sis came to CO during Christmas time!!!


9 more days until I move back to Louisiana, to be a nanny for 2 months! I'm VERY EXCITED to see Ruston friends, Georgetown friends and all my family! :)
Proverbs 19:21
Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the LORD’s purpose that prevails.


Since I've graduated, the Lord's purposed have been prevailing in my life to use me and to bring back closer to Him. From googling and getting the job in Utah, to quitting that job to work at Feed My Sheep, to unexpectedly getting to go back to Africa...His purpose prevails.
