WOW!! It's been way too long. Again. I seem to get this started and then life gets in the way and I stop. But I have had some sort of insight into my purpose. I kept stressing out over where I was suppossed to be putting all my effort. I found myself procrastinating more than anything. But then Sunday while in church scripture just sort of bumped right into me!! I found all I needed to know in 2nd Corinthians about comfort. And then finally it just came full circle for me. It was like you have the purpose and idea God gave you right in front of you. I created in the beginning Joshua's Generation and used the scripture that comforted me and guided me through my trial at the time. And I kept repeating over in my head....give me this answer God. You have given me this life....what do I do with it. You are wanting to use me...so WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO? And then it hit me....Keep is Simple Sweetie. You know that KISS method. I was brought right back to what is already present. I am already a Witness for Christ. He made me one when my son was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. And then HE handed me Celiac Disease...and then HE brought me two little girls with this same disease and I realized that no plan is without God's design. His HAND chose me for this. And when he mapped this experience out for me...and I chose to turn to HIM for all my needs...he created a great story within my home. Within my heart. Within my reach....I can tell my story. Because my story is NOT diabetes. My story is struggle...my story is darkness...and finding light. My story is finding CHRIST in the center of all that. Truly finding HIM waiting there for me. And as I read 2nd Corinthians I realized....I lead with my story. I lead by my experience. And there are many many out there who will experience very similiar trials. So my story is not DIABETES....my story is I STRUGGLE. And I CHOSE HIM. My story is...finding light when all you see is darkness. So I had an epiphany. And I had vision. I had clarity. And now I have peace within. Because if you ever doubt if you get answers in prayer....I can tell you that you do. And if you ever doubt if you can HEAR him speak...it is not a direct voice...but HE does communicate. So I found my purpose with Joshua's Generation. I know what to do with it..I know what to make of it...now it's up to me to represent. Oh we still have a cure to find. Of that you can be certain I do hold great passion for motivating all of you to join me in that search for a cure. We do have diabetes to fight....diabetes is our struggle. Diabetes is the experience. But our COMFORT is within the ALMIGHTY. Our peace will come through HIM. So lets get this journey started. Lets be leaders like Joshua and make this a generation that fights for change. Change within the physical of finding a cure for our illness and a spiritual change that is about a cure for our spirits and souls. I cannot cure you of any ailment...but I can comfort you through CHRIST who comforts me. I cannot save you....I can only lead you to the cross. Our experiences are powerful....but CHRIST is almighty. He is MIGHTY to SAVE.
