HIGHER CALLING

Are you seeking God's purposes for your life? Are you at a point where you realize that God is calling you higher in Him? I am a Christian Coach, and I have been a Social Worker, educator, and parental and family advocate for several years. Although I don't have all the answers, I know Someone who does. Join me in this Christian journey reaching higher in the purposes of God. In my practice and in my daily life:

...this one thing I do,

forgetting those things which are behind,

and reaching forth unto those things which are before,

I press toward the mark for the prize of the

high calling of God in Christ Jesus."
Philippians 3:13, 14


As the Apostle states here I am not there yet, but I keep on 'pressing'. As a result, I also want to assist and teach others, and as Jesus instructs in Matthew 28:19, 20 - 'The Great Commission' -

"...and teach all nations,
baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you:
and, lo, I am with you alway, [even] unto the end of the world. Amen"

Where I came from -

A little about me - I grew up in a very strict, God fearing, Baptist home, with both parents, and I was the oldest of five. When I went away to college, I literally went wild during the 70's - partying and doing whatever I could, seeking freedom, love, and who I was. I went from questioning my parent's love to questioning the love of God. It took marriage to a mentally and spiritually abusive man to bring me back to seeking God on a level beyond the strict disciplinarian, to a loving God. After the divorce, which was inevitable, God took me through the fire, and showed me who I was in Him, and that was as a strong woman in God, a Daughter of the King.

I am learning that I am complete in Christ Jesus. I do not have a need to reinvent myself any longer. All of the attributes of Christ are at my disposal to make me complete (Charles H. Spurgeon). This was a long and hard process, so I believe that I have been led to help others through this process, with the help of the Holy Spirit, of course.
