Inspiration to Uganda...& the World

When you hear the word "Uganda", it evokes many different responses from people. Most are negative - war, famine, corrupt, poverty, unsafe, death....all of which are true. Thinking of Uganda only brings one thing to my mind though --- Katie Davis.

Katie is a 21 year old, resident of Uganda, lover of Christ, mother to 14 girls, orphan advocate, and a true example of what being the hands and feet of Jesus looks like. If you have never heard of her or her ministry, Amazima Ministries, you MUST read about it!! I've been reading her blog for a while and always feel inspired with every new post. It's amazing how the Lord is using her, even though most of the world would disregard her because she's so young.

"Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in purity." -- 1 Timothy 4:12

One of her most powerful entries was the story of her call to Uganda (she was only 18), the intense struggles she faced while doing so, and how her obedience to God has drastically altered her own plans....and made her life so much richer than she ever dreamed. Read the entry here.

Here is a short look at her ministry and life in Uganda. Watch and be inspired!
