Cinderella's House

           I have received some more information about one of the ministries I will have the opportunity to help with while I am in Spain, called Cinderella’s House, and so I wanted to share this information with you. This new ministry reaches out to the women who are enslaved in the sex trade, and are looking for a safe place to heal, be restored and grow in Christ. Right now this ministry is so new that there is not yet an actual house, so the missionaries actually go out to minister to these women.  I will have the privilege to work with these missionaries who are passionately committed to serving God by reaching out to these hurting, broken women and showing them the love and healing restoration God offers.  

          It seems like every time I learn something more about God’s plan for this year I can see more and more why He has given me the passions that He has given. I am humbled to see how God is working everything out; using me in ways I never thought I could be used.  It just reminds me of how Big and Powerful God truly is, and yet how loving and intimate His relationship is with all of us, by taking the very things that we love and even things that we fear and using them all for His glory. Every time I go to think how unworthy I am to have the King of the universe use me, I am reminded that it is in my weakness that God’s power truly shows through. When we have nothing to bring but all of ourselves, God can truly take all that we are and aren’t and show the world and often times even us more of who He is… “But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us.” 2 Corinthians 4:7

2 Corinthians 12:9-10, “But He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong!”
