"For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord. They are plans for good and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. In those days when you pray, I will listen. You will find me when you seek me, if you look for me in earnest."
~ Jeremiah 29:11-13

Well, finally I have taken the time to tell you who I am. My full name is Rebecca Loreen Burr and I was born on July 2, 1976 in southern California. I grew up here in northeastern Oklahoma where I asked Jesus into my heart at the age of four. I was baptized in the Holy Spirit when I was nine years old.
I have always craved that special relationship with Jesus that I could see in others but never knew how to achieve it for myself. All I can say is that God's hand has been on my life from the very beginning. He has brought me through so much already that I know I would not be here without Him. His blessings have been so abundant to me that I cannot begin to list them all.
As a child does, I wondered and dreamed about what my life would be like when I "grew up". Little did I know it would be so difficult to decide. I searched for years to find what I was supposed to do with my life. For a long time I chased different personal interests, thinking I had found "the thing", but the more I tried to figure it all out, the more confused I became. Finally I gave up, thinking I would just continue on without a real goal in sight. I decided that I would just serve God to the best of my ability as a homemaker, which is my current vocation.
Now as a wife and mother of three, I am beginning to see God's plan for my life unfold more clearly. I believe in my heart that He is calling me into the ministry. A ministry to women; teaching them how God views them and the purpose for which He has created them, specifically what it means to be a "homemaker". (Proverbs 31:10-31)
He has assured me that this is a lifelong mission and will not happen overnite, next month, or even in the next five years. We are talking long-term here. There will be many things He asks me to do along the way which may or may not appear to relate to my life mission, but the lessons I learn will be the foundation of what He has called me to share with others. The life I lead right now, tomorrow and next month is my training ground for ministry.
If you have read this far, thank you so much for your interest. Please say a prayer when you think of me that I would continue to be humble and diligent before God, growing in faith and obedience to Him.
