The Daughter Project...

I find myself with a mist in my eye once again. Diary of a Mad Black Woman does it to me every time. It's always at the end, with that beautiful, soulful, and powerful song when everything is right again. Goosebumps and eye-watering every time. Then when it gets to the very end (SPOILER ALERT) and Helen and Orlando are back together and they walk of in a very Officer and a Gentleman moment out of the steel factory. It just makes me eager to get to the day when I have my own man. The kind of man that loves me with the kind of love that only God can create in a man. I'm just waiting for my one good love.

I am lucky enough to have been taught by an amazing man named Jeff Wilbarger. He was my high school math teacher as well as a class advisor and let me tell you, that man has such a love for the Lord and such a passion for serving him in whatever capacity that he can. He recently just began a non-profit organization called the Daughter Project for victims of human trafficing. Someone that was my teacher is giving his time and effort for the bettering of someone else. He did this every day in his classroom with his students, he did it at home with his family. This man just has so much to give. I would encourage everyone that thinks about it to pray for him and just pray for the people that are going to be involved in this new ministry. I know I will be....
