My Heroes {May Change Your Life}.
I believe there is power in sharing our stories. I have been mulling around this idea of highlighting people that we know who have chosen to pursue Jesus and the heroic life He invites us to. Although sharing in human form is best, I know that doesn't always happen. So here goes to an experiment of interviewing and writing out a chronicle of life-experiences!
Stay tuned and keep up; you won't want to miss out on these. You will be moved, touched, motivated, and hopefully inspired to go and do! Simply be and know you are loved. Inspired, knowing that these heroic experiences and lives are available for everyone to live.
Know that ordinary humans have the capability to do anything.
Because let's be honest, we are all just human.
A snap shot into the amazing stories to come:
•A 70+ year old man whose wife ended up having a mental illness and his decision to stay with and serve her until death due them part, though many encouraged divorce.
•A first time & new mom at 23 years, choosing to babysit a single mom's 4 children. For free.
•A family of 5 moving into a camper trailer, to help start a church. {Still need to ask them}.
•A young newlywed couple who took a plunge of faith, and due to their conviction, stopped using hormonal birth control. Their plans are not playing out, but they're seeking Jesus in a very very unexpected pregnancy. Ready for a life changing quote that she said to me just yesterday? Here goes:
Had I not stopped my usage of hormonal birth control, this baby, this life, would
probablynot have survived. This child would have been rejected from my body. And even though this is a challenge and something difficult right now, I know God will use it. Even through the painful growth. And this life was spared.
These are merely a few. Each of them do have made it clear that they don't see anything heroic about their stories...but once you read the depth of it, you will understand with me. They have also made it clear that they live not for self, but for Jesus. Your life will be changed. And maybe you have something to share, too, that reveals the faithfulness of Jesus Christ through your submission in following Him. If so, click HERE and shoot me an email!
