Today is the 9th month anniversary for me since God healed me of my fear of what others think about me. Nine months! Praise God! Today, satan has tried to take back that healing. He has put a situation in my path that overwhelmed me for awhile there. Tonight, God put people in my path that helped me stand my ground against this. They prayed with me, hugged me, encouraged me.
Nine months ago I was in Juarez Mexico in an orphanage. God had started working on me the year before while I was in Juarez. Nine months ago, God asked me again, Lauri who do you fear Me or man? Right then and there I had to choose. I choose you God. And God gave me a whole new ministry out of it. And while in Juarez I was called on to sing a song for the ladies Bible study. The only song I could think of was "Whom Then Shall I Fear?" I sang it and cried through some of it. God was speaking to me.
Even before I went to Mexico I sang that song a whole lot. My oldest son even had my name on his cell phone as Humshali (get it.....Whom (Hum) Shall (shall) I? And out of all this God gave me a name for my ministry. Humshali.........I now have to do something with that.
God you are awesome! I praise You for showing me that You can use me right where I am.

Here goes! I have no clue what I am doing. I just know that I need to be telling others about how awesome God is and what wonderful things He is doing in my life.
