MY BABIES!!

Ok so I don't know if Iposted this before but I am the director of a new dance ministry at my church. I was asked to reform the youth dance ministry. After prayer and fasting God gave me the title "David's Daughters Youth Dance Ministry" and a vision of a ministry where young people will use dance, praise, and worship as weapons and tools to develop a deeply intimate relationship with God. The ages are 12-18. I got this age limit because it was at the age of 12 that I first joined a ministry and learned spiritual intimacy for myself. I personally know this age isn't too young. It was tough when we first formed becaused most of them just wanted to dance only. I developed a one month intense training to cover a realm of topics to prepare them for dance ministry. Some of them were resistant at first. This is because my expectations for them is very high but I know they can do it; they just didnt yet know. After this training I thought they would be close to ready and we had a setback in practice one day. It was good because it revealed that some of them weren't as far along as they needed to be so I stepped up the teaching. After three more weeks of prayer, practice, and even their firt fast they were ready for their debut. They first ministered at 11:00 service on Sunday October 22. They did an excellent job!! People were ranting and raving. More importantly their confidence was built and they now knew they could do it. I was so extremely proud of these 14 young ladies who are now Tiffany's daughters as well. I was probably more nervous than they were right before they went on. I was standing with them in the hallway and they said "Go sit down so you can watch us" I don't have any children but now I feel like a parent. I have 14 girls who I have to watch for spiritually, cover in prayer, give guidance and inspiration. It feels absolutely wonderful and totally fulfilling! I am truly humbled for the opportunity.
