Cutting Edge Ministries
11/15/11
About a year and a half ago for the first time in my life I felt as if I had a calling on my life. I can still remember the day like it was yesterday. I woke up and was just doing my normal routine and in my quiet time with the Lord He revealed to me that I am supposed to write and speak. I didn’t exactly know what that meant, but my first reaction was I can write, but I can’t speak. For those of you who have known me for a while know that I wasn’t the type of person who would talk out loud in a group. It always made me really nervous and I couldn’t stand it. I only shared this calling with one other person at first because it seemed so unrealistic to me and I didn’t want people to think I was crazy when I told them.
I started writing blogs, but I just continued to put off the speaking thing because I had no idea what I am was supposed to do with that and I wasn’t going to pursue something I didn’t want to do in the first place. Well, my writing turned into sharing my story on the radio and then on T.V. and at different church functions, youth groups and women’s events.
In talking with my pastor to try to figure out what this is all going to look like, we decided it is pretty much a ministry that the Lord has given me. He is using all of the things from my past to help bring others to Him and provide them with Hope. We came up with the name CUTTING EDGE MINISTRIES, which I think is very fitting. I have spent the past couple of months trying to get a logo together in order to make a business card and a page that tells about the ministry. I finally have a card and I have a friend putting together the page this week. I am hoping to create a Facebook page for the ministry and do a blog on BlogSpot for it. I am just trying to find different ways to promote the ministry and get the word out.
Although I haven’t done anything yet other than the business card, which I haven’t really even given out yet opportunities are coming left and right. Just last week I was asked to speak at an event in October 2012. It is a sanctity of life event and I will be speaking about transformation. A lady from Connecticut contacted this week about possibly going there to speak and there have been other possibilities in the past couple of weeks. It is evident that this is what the Lord wants me to be doing because He is the one opening the doors and all I have to do is obedient and walk through them. It would be my desire that through this ministry I will get to speak to many people and even mentor and encourage some to be able to help them overcome their struggles and know that they are loved and there is hope.
I am in the process of making several more business cards so that I can give everyone some to pass out. When the flyer is done I will have that to give to you too. It doesn’t even have to be for a speaking event… even if you just know someone who is struggling, hurting themself or just needs encouragement I am willing to make time to help.
I ask that you will be in prayer with me for this ministry and that you would help me in getting the word out. Feel free to contact me if you would like more information or cards to give out.
