Steps toward Justice

Every sense I was little God had already given me a heart for justice, I had the incredible opportunity to go to Kenya, Africa when I was sixteen and work in a village overcome by poverty and without clean water. Throughout school I did a report on modern day slavery, human trafficking, something that I felt very strongly toward. My heart broke for the people, not only in Africa, but all around the world, whether they be without shelter, food, clean water, sanitation, education, or if they were one of the millions of victims sold into human trafficking,  I never was able to shake the feeling that I had to do something.

Sense being here at Grimerud, Norway, I have talked a lot with one of my leaders Ricardo, who is leading a Justice Discipleship training school, next fall 2014. The school will work with non-profits such as Justice Water, and Steps of Justice. God has strongly laid this on my heart, and I have the amazing opportunity to be a part of bringing Justice to the nations next year and be on staff with the school.

It is so crazy because I have only been in dts a little over 2 months, but I feel like this path for my life is from God and that he has really been putting it on my heart over and over again, as well as putting it on the hearts of the current staff. I am continually praying about it, and would love your support and prayers through this time. It is a huge decision, and a big step in my life, and a big step in faith as I would solely be living off donations from my supporters. But I believe that if this is where God is leading me then he will open all of the doors.

I am so excited to share this next step of my journey with you all, but until I get closer to finalizing my decision and my dts is winding down, I would so greatly appreciate prayers for guidance, confirmation, provision, and peace.

All my readers, my friends, my church, You are all so near and dear to my heart, and I hope you are as excited as I am to share in this next step in my life.

In Christ,

Eliana
