The Broken Rise Ministry

 I feel the Lord is calling me to something much bigger than myself. I feel Him calling me to a ministry. I feel Him calling me to use this voice and the story that He graciously gave me to lead others. To lead them to something much bigger than themselves. Something so much greater and so much more beautiful than them and me. Something bigger than you, my dear reader. Something bigger and greater and more beautiful than we could ever imagine, even in our wildest dreams. This "something" I am talking about is the glory of God. I want you to behold our great Father. I want you to learn and grow and be, just be (more on that coming very soon!).

As broken people in a broken world we forget, at least I often do, to worship during the broken moments. We need Jesus to lead us and hold us up. We need each other. We need to worship, broken brothers and sisters. You and I, we need to worship!! God has called us to not be idle and stay put, so here I am, not staying put. Today is another broken day with more broken moments and hard, hard stuff, but today is more importantly the day that the Lord has made!! Right now I am pursuing joy in that. Child of God, I pray you are too.

So, this ministry is basically pulling all of what I just said into one thing and calling it "The Broken Rise". God gave me that name and I absolutely love it! It is truly my heart and goal and what God is calling me to. I want you and me, as the broken people we are, to rise up and use our voice to proclaim His glory and share these broken stories that God has given us.

If you are broken from abuse, illness, loss, trauma, Spiritual warfare, whatever it is that broke you then or is breaking you now, I crave to give you a safe place to share your struggles. I crave to give you a place where you feel safe talking and sharing about your brokenness and heartache. I crave to give you a place where you can come to get encouragement and advice and scripture and beautiful words from God spoken through other broken people who are being lead by our Holy Spirit. I want you to see that you're not alone and be encouraged other breaking people and their stories, by what our awesome God is doing in their lives, what He is doing right now in mine as I type these words.

I want to see a community of broken people rising up and giving God glory, one word, one story, one moment, one heartbeat at a time. But not stopping there! The Lord has put Eternity on my heart, He has made Eternity so real to me and that is such a blessing. With that being said, I want to see a community of broken people rising up not just for the temporal, but also, and more importantly, for the Eternal.

This is my heart. This is where God is leading me. I have no idea where He is going to take me, but the possibilities with God are endless!! It's most certainly going to be a bumpy ride and a painful journey, but God has brought me here to this moment, He will equip me and hold me up, as will He for you, dear called believer.

You will soon be able to find us on YouTube & Facebook :) There will be an open page on Fb for updates, encouragement, and scripture + some beautiful stories of brokenness and restoration. There will also be a closed group (meaning by request only:)) on Fb for the more personal, conversational, in depth stuff. :) The Broken Rise YouTube channel is going to be me sharing my stories of brokenness and restoration and my hope is that I will be an encouragement and that God would put a hope filled song in my heart to share with you, dear friend! And Lord willing, it won't stop there! As He continues to lead, I will continue to go... sometimes kicking and screaming because I'm a mess and fear is legit, but God is teaching me and I'm learning and growing and walking and God is so gracious! Praise the Lord!!

I'm praying for you, sweet broken friend! I'm praying that this ministry will bless and encourage you and you will be spurred on in your walk with God and be renewed. I'm praying that redemption will happen and God will be glorified! I'm praying that lost souls will be saved and come to Jesus!!

Blessings! *Hugs*

In Christ,

Silent Pain.

I just recently read a blog post about silent pain. It was like it was talking about me. Though the girl that wrote it and I deal with pain about completely different things and hers is much more serious, we still deal with pain and we hold it in. Unfortunately, she didn't say anything until it was to late. Until it had already broken her. I don't want to do that. I don't want this pain to break me. I don't want to lose a part of myself because of this pain. So, I am going tell you about my pain. Not to make you feel bad for me, not so that you can pity me, but because... I want to inspire others. I want to inspire you. I want to share my journey with you, I want you to be a part of my journey. And I don't want this pain to break me. I walk down the aisle in Wal-mart, in the hallway at the hospital where my dad works, at church, in the car, at home, anywhere and it seems like everywhere I go there are flickering lights (flickering lights are a major seizure trig...

We Have a Choice

It's my choice. I can feel less than. I can feel not enough. I can feel like I'll never measure up. I can feel like the grass is always greener on the other side. I can believe the lie that I'm not making a difference. I can believe that I'm alone, that I'm the only one chasing these dreams. I can believe that it's all about me. OR I can know and live truth that it's not about me. I am less than without Jesus. I am not enough without Jesus. I will never measure up without Jesus. The grass is always greener where you water it. I am making a difference because of Jesus. I am not alone because of Jesus. It is all about Jesus. I'm combating the lies! The lies Satan pours over me. The lies I'm drowning in. The lies that I'm letting stop me from pursuing the things of God. The things He is laying on my heart to pursue. I am in a season of beginnings, of new and different, of remembering, of working through big, hard things. As I...

My Hallelujah Song.

Today is one of those really bad days. You know, the kind of day where your heart hurts even when something wonderful happens? The kind of day that makes you want to cry about every little thing? The kind of day that makes you almost hate the things you love? Yeah, today has been that kind of day for me. Today has kind of stunk! It has been rough and my heart is hurting. Today is the every once in a while day that we call "I hate Epilepsy day". It comes every couple of weeks or months and it doesn't stay long but while it's here, it hurts! It breaks our hearts and it makes us cry and basically, it just plain stinks, big time!! I have cried more times then I can count today. Why? You may ask. Because, it stinks to have Epilepsy sometimes! Now, please don't get the idea that I hate Epilepsy, even though everything I've said so far has pointed to that very thought. I LOVE having Epilepsy!! I love that the Lord gave this illness to me!! It is a gift and I am...
