And I need you. I need you supporting me and showing interest in what I am doing and who I am becoming. I need your prayers. This work is God's work. It is so much bigger than me. I am scared, but in my work, you can't show it. Because when I enter that room, it is not about me. No one wants to go to a counselor who wonders whether they will have what it takes to help them.
I bought a little ceramic owl on my birthday. On the box was an old nursery rhyme called the Wise Old Owl. It reads:
A wise old owl
lived in an oak.
The more he saw
the less he spoke.
The less he spoke
the more he heard.
Why can't we all
be like that wise
old bird?
What a great reminder to use our ears more than our mouths.

Girl, you have been given the gifts of discipleship, discernment, and counsel! As one of my bestest friends, I know this to be true for you. God has directed you and placed you right where you need to be so you can use those gifts for His glory. You got this, sweet Carrie! Love you and can't wait to hear how it goes. (and your three followers havent left you...just got distracted :)
