Holy Agitation!
My heart is so full today.
I don’t know if you know this about me yet, but I have a HUGE heart and deep concern for what is happening to our children and young adults in our world right now. They are under attack and it is coming at them from all directions. This is absolutely breaking my heart.
Suicide and the rate of suicide is particularly heart wrenching. . Here are some statistics and an article from the CDC (Center for Disease Control) on this heartbreaking issue. I also listened to a recording on Apple News not too long ago where in the interview with a licensed counselor he revealed that we now have FIVE YEAR old's taking their lives. I broke down in tears.

I will continue to share Vision & Purpose work with everyone and anyone, because it fixes just about everything in your life. However, it is becoming clearer and clearer to me that my heart, soul, and purpose are to work with children and young adults. This grave public health epidemic must be addressed. This. Has. To. Stop.
A few days ago, I was remarkably blessed to work with a group of young adults on their vision. This beautiful experience filled my heart more than almost anything I have done so far. They were already working on talking about their purpose when I walked in the room and I heard purpose described like I have never heard before.
I was so encouraged by the hunger these young people have wanting to build their best lives now, having the willingness to make changes, and the majority desiring to be entrepreneurs, too!
Your purpose is the "Holy Agitation" you feel everyday about that thing about which you can’t stop thinking. You dream about it, feel a strong desire for it, and it keeps calling you and won’t stop! Your purpose literally creates that agitation so you will pay attention.
With all this said, I want all of you to be the first to know that I am on a mission to create a movement of raising up new generations of purpose filled, passionate, adults who want to change the world. THEY are our revival and our future.
I am not sure of the game plan, but I want to start with offering a summer workshop to help them with their vision!
I would like to hear from you to know if you will help me spread the word when I announce this, and/or if you know some of these young people who would really want this!
I hope this message ‘agitated’ your soul today.
