Hi bloggersphere!

Well hello!! 

I have no idea what I am doing starting a blog! I'm not sure I have enough interesting ideas to write about. But- here goes nothing! (or everthing.. :) )

There's nothing in particular I really want to blog about or document. No really big trip, or huge event coming up in my life. Where to start where to start...

Weeeellll, I guess I will start with something God's put on my heart to do! A couple of years ago, when I was overseas working with orphanages in Ukraine, God really gave me a passion and love for these kids-- I was torn for them and as I prayed about it, I was really devastated at the lack of education and future that they have. But what could I do? I am an actress, a singer, and performer. I am the definition of a starving artist-  living paycheck to paycheck,  I mean I have to really think if I can spare a mere 20 bucks. But I WANTED to DO something. I needed to. You cant see these kids, love them for a week, and disappear and forget. Its utterly impossible. So, I was in Riga, Latvia- and we took the kids to see a movie- Eagle Eye (fantastic movie). And as I was watching that movie-- I knew what I could do! As much as I want to move overseas and become mother teresa- that isn't what God has put in my hands, in this moment. But I can do something with what He's given me. And so I had this idea to make a documentary. Im not sure how Im going to do it, I have no idea how to make a documentary. Im used to being in front of the camera, not behind it. I dont know how I am going to finance it. I dont know who will want to help me. Because I know whoever is going to be involved needs to have the same passion I do. But I DO know that it doesnt really matter. What matters is that God knows the answers to those questions, and so all I have to do is listen and wait and take one step at a time. 

So, not anything really exciting-- just a vision and a promise and a hope to make a difference -- however big or small. Well, it wont be small. Because, we serve a BIG God, and so nothing can be small with our big God.
