RESTORATION RANCH - MIDFIELD, TX |
It's been a while.. yes, I know. Sorry, I'm pretty bad at this blogging thing. I must get used to it!
So much has happened since the Bonfire in July! The Bonfire was a success by the way. There were so many women that were loosed from their pains and sufferings that had been hiding in their heart for quite some time. We sang, we ate, we laughed, we cried, we worshiped all under God's night sky that he painted for us. It was beautiful. At the end of it all, we were laying down on our backs singing praises to our King while Danny (thx danny, you did a great job!!) led us in worship on his guitar and we got to see not ONE, not TWO, but THREE SHOOTING STARS! I took it as a confirmation that the Lord was very pleased with all that we gave up to Him that night. <3
As of recently, the most exciting thing we've been looking forward to is our trip to the Restoration Ranch. For those of you that have never heard about the ranch before, you can learn more at www.plowon.org and see what it's all about. The ranch is made successful by Paul & Billie Kaye Tsika along with their two sons and two daughters-in-law.
The way I met Paul is a long, super-natural story that I'll save for another day. It's such a huge testimony that most people stay with their jaw dropped once hearing it.
I haven't seen Paul for many years. I only saw him once, but what he did for me forever stayed in my heart and I never forgot his act of kindness and what he had told me about his ranch. I always wanted to call him to say thank you and maybe see if I could go pay the ranch a visit sometime but I never did UNTIL God stirred my heart and got my mind running one day (isn't that just like Him). To make a long story short, I got in touch with Paul and got to thank him for all he did for me six years ago (he actually still remembered me! haha). I told him that my life had changed immensely since then and that I now have a ministry, My Majesty's Ministry, and that I was wondering if it would be possible if we (Princess Bible Study girls) could take a trip up there. He got together with his wife and staff and they made an exception for us. You see, the ranch is usually exclusively for couples that are working on RESTORING their marriage. It's a peaceful, quiet and beautiful place to escape to. Paul & Billie counsel these couples free of charge. They not only counsel them but offer them all the amenities of the ranch. They're just too awesome!
Paul & Billie Kaye Tsika - Authors of the book GET MARRIED, STAY MARRIED |
There's lots to do out there and I know we're going to have a great time! We're all currently reading Paul & Billie's book GET MARRIED, STAY MARRIED. It's an absolutely beautiful book that's full of knowledge & wisdom. It teaches you about the meaning of true love, God's purpose for marriage and gives you the tools to have a lasting, healthy & happy relationship with the Lord as your solid foundation.
Oh, precious Father how we love thee! Thank you for this opportunity that you've given us to head out to the ranch and nourish our spirits with your word and fellowship. Thank you for Paul & Billie and their family. May our hearts and minds be open to all You have to show us and may your perfect will be done.
Yup! This is it. Looks heavenly, huh? Isn't it the most beautiful ranch you've ever seen?! |
