In recent months, I have really been feeling led to step up in terms of advocating for the Preemptive Love Coalition. Honestly, I have no idea what that really means, but I do know I've been using the excuse of not knowing as a reason to NOT be obedient. This is a trap I constantly fall into: not knowing exactly what to do and, therefore, doing nothing at all. However, I've also seen the Lord at work most in my life when I simply take a step and do SOMETHING. Most of the time, the step I take doesn't directly lead anywhere, but I end up making great strides in a different direction as a result of that first baby step, no matter how misdirected it was.
So, all that leads me to now... the only way I know to step up my advocacy of PLC is to be proactive in raising awareness of what they are doing and the needs they have. And the only way I know to do that is to speak to groups of people about it.
Are you a member of a group (MOPS, Jr. League, National Meat Cutters Assoc.) that would be open to having me speak about my trips to Iraq, what PLC is doing, and how they can be involved? Although I wouldn't pass a hat or anything like that, fundraising, awareness, and increased involvement would be my major goals.
If so, please contact me either by posting a comment below, or emailing me at leighsaxon@hotmail.com.
Thanks for being part of my first step toward obedience in this. I'll let you know how it goes...

I keep meaning to ask if you ever heard from the National Meat Cutters Association, because that's one talk I'd like to tag along for... : )
