Welcome ~

You know that moment in life where you are single (divorced), your children are grown and you are facing a new season in your life?

You ask yourself, "What am I going to do? What do I want to do?"  I am still learning this for myself but I do know enough to know that I want to make a difference.

I have worked in a corporate office, hitting a time clock for over 30 years.  I have gained allot of knowledge in my profession and have climbed the corporate ladder and I was being blessed financially.  For this I am truly thankful.

But to be honest, its not enough.  I want to make a difference.  I want to make an impact.  This feeling probably comes from me serving the Lord for 40 years.  I have gave my heart to the Lord at 9 years of age and I have been sitting and waiting.  I have four (grown) children and I have home schooled for 18 years.  That season is over.  I am preparing for the next season and I want to make my days matter.

I am in prayer of this and asking God for direction.  The one passion that has been in my life is women and the abuse of women and children.  I am leaning toward this area.  I will let you know when I get a confirmation.

This ministry is about women, for women.  To me, Jael is a mighty woman of God who takes a back seat to Ruth, Esther and Deborah in the bible only because her story is only a few lines long but she made a difference in her day.  In Judges 4: 17-22, 5:6, 24-27.  Jael means "wild or mountain goat" or "gazelle."  While her enemy slept (Sisera), she took a tent pin in one and with a maul in the other and she drove the pin home through the skull of Sisera as he slept.  Sisera was an enemy of Israel.  She saved her country in one swoop.

This blog is for the quiet ladies who deep down, have the strength to do what is right, stand strong and know she is valued.
