Isaiah 52:7 How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of the messenger who brings good news, the good news of peace and salvation, the news that the God of Israel reigns
Six more weeks to initiate this new season of my life
Three months in the Discipleship Training School, God had brought so much healing into my life, He had opened my eyes to so much, brought me more revelation of His heart, character and love for me. I began to walk loved by the Most High with a more intimate relationship with Him, He transformed me inside out. I was falling more and more in love with God, what I experienced and lived was like a dream come true or better say a dream I wouldn’t have the courage to dream. I took steps of faith, renounce to things that were holding me back from getting to my destiny and there my call was revealed, it was a radical transformation in my heart, mind and soul. Building a home for the hopeless, giving soup to the poor, praying and breaking chains over the lost in alcohol, singing songs of worship in a corner of a street with homeless became my most precious moments. I was filled with joy, passion, compassion, love and mercy. I saw more of Jesus and something in me grew strong, desires to walk like Jesus and to love people through Jesus’ love! Before we head to outreach Costa Rica/Nicaragua I knew God was calling me to missions and I said YES to Him. I was willing to go and serve at any country, place He would call me to, I was willing to obey, willing to serve at any ministry He needed me! Little did I know what He had in mind, the precious vision He was about to reveal me!!! Then I knew I was not going back to my normal life!
Everything happened in San Jose, Costa Rica…. Hmm it was heart-breaking but that’s were a vision was born! We were invited to participate in the ministry “Freedom-Street”, this ministry’s vision is to rescue girls/women who have been expose to human trafficking, who are victims, boys also!! One of the days I and two other girls of my DTS had the opportunity to spend a day at the beach with six girls who had been rescued. That day we shared our testimony and were able to simply love them. As I observed the girls playing at beach mean while we were baby-sitting their babies my heart began to feel uncomfortable and God little by little opened my eyes to see a glance of what breaks His heart. On our way back home, one of the girls (a 13 year old) was sitting next to me. She was pregnant due to a raped, she was a child prostitute, she was a victim who was right next me, who had feelings and with no dreams, she was broken, her innocence was stolen. All that and more God revealed to me and the inside of me broke into piece, I couldn't understand why, how but more than anything I felt helpless, tight-up. As I asked to extend her legs so she can rest, my heart was beating so fast and all I desired at that moment was to hold her in my arms and protect her, erase all her past, make her feel loved and valued!! But I didn't I couldn't I mean HOW?!! Then I prayed and asked God to please have mercy over these children. God then showed that what I was feeling was only a glance of how He feels for His broken children, that she is His daughter, His princess and His heart breaks seeing His creation so lost, that this was NOT the ideal life He had in mind for her and then in my spirit He told me;
“My dear daughter, my princess I want to use you to take my love and bring hope to the lost, to the hopeless to the broken, I want to use you to love them through you. I desire to use you to help women from high of society and to the lowest of society to find their value and identity in I AM!!” I was overwhelmed and then I knew my purpose!! This vision is to love and rescue victims who are exposed to Human Trafficking and victims in the Fashion Industry. God is so awesome that He opened doors to do both!! But it didn't end there=)!
Walking in the jungle of Telamanca,Costa Rica
As I was praying as where God wanted me to pursue this call, I received an invitation through an email from the directors of the Fall DTS 2013 to be part of the leadership/staff of the coming DTS! I couldn't believe this I was overwhelmed again, God continued to surprise me. I prayed for confirmation and God soon answered and of course I said YES! I knew how wonderful DTS was to me, and how much God did in me and though me and the blessing my leaders were and now I had the opportunity to walk next to the student in such an important season of their life of course I’d love to be part of that, I feel so honored!!
When I arrived at the YWAM Ensenada base, talked to the base director, Tym. I have to admit that I was nervous to talk to him but he is such a loving great man of God and through him God confirmed me one more time that I was walking in His will. All doubts were gone. I shared the vision to Tym and my heart was so encouraged with his wise and kind words and made a two year commitment ha ha I can smell it that it will be longer hee hee.
This will be my new home
Now to make this vision a ministry and live out this dream of God for my life I need your support. God has taught me to be humble, to trust in Him, to be obedient to Him and He will provide. I definitely can’t do it alone, so that’s why I am asking you to please pray and ask God as how you can be part of this vision, this journey with me.. You can become a partner with me with a one-time donation, monthly donations (even $10/monthly counts ;)) or prayers! I need to pay $225 per month (Everything is included: housing, food, transportation, materials, etc.) and donations can be tax-deductible if is done through our YWAM website. To me prayers are as important as donations. I will appreciate any way you can support me. As right now I am working on a website and seeking God for fresh ideas of how to reach out the lost in human trafficking and the lost in the fashion industry. I will post a blog in the next month with more details for the ministry!! I have to share that to the base director first!!
