I have liked building things from a very young age. For Christmas one year, when I was 6 years old, I got the biggest set of K’nex I have ever gotten. K’nex is much like lego’s with sticks, wires, gears and differently shaped smaller pieces, to connect others. They gave me a set with 1,000 pieces or so, that also comes with an instruction book of about 50 different things you can make. Within about 1 hour I had finished everything in the book, ending with a 3 foot tall ferris wheel that was fully mobile. I will never forget the comment my Grandma made. “Wow that boy is going to be an engineer” ( Thanks Grandma Valerie for the K’nex, and believing in me… always ).
I know what you’re thinking. Now he’s going to go to college to be an engineer… not exactly. I still love building, but I love God more. I believe God has said I will not go to College, but I believe he gives us the desires of our heart.
— FLASHBACK–
I’m sitting in a crowded living room full of people who love God. Half of the room is some kids from my youth group, the other half is the family of 9 and one on the way, that let us stay at their house for a few days as we visited I.H.O.P. for about 4 days(International House of Prayer, its in Kansas City and the impact this place has had on my life is a whole different story). As we worship and pray the presence of God fills me up and I cry at how moved I am, as usual. The mom tells us a story after the music is done. A friend of theirs had a dream in which God says to him, he wants him to learn to build bridges, because he will build bridges in heaven. Simple right? So what did he do? He went to school and got a degree in engineering and architechture to apply it building bridges. He now builds and designs bridges for a living. ( I applaud and am taken aback by this story ). This resonates with me in a way so deep I can’t explain and so strong I couldn’t ignore it. I began in that moment praying for a call like this one. That same night I had a dream of God telling me, in the same way that I would build houses! After that night I pray very often for this calling. To what extent? How big? My money? How God, when, who? In answer to all my prayers God has given me several visions, each one similar, each one somehow for a different purpose.
I am going to tell them as if they are one vision, even though they are several. I believe some are to happen VERY soon, (any supporters of this vision CALL ME!!) some progress and change with my life as I get older.
— THE VISION–
The only problem is, right now they are very vague, and I believe that God wants me to trust him with the details.
1) Build a large shelter, on land that will be given to me. Meant to house homeless in Houston. And as it grows house homeless all across America in other cities.
2) People just begin giving me supplies needed to build a house for myself, God then asks me to give it away as I finish it, and I am happy to do so!
3) Build houses to “bless” people who do or don’t deserve it. They would be in rough financial situation and for the first time have a paid-for house for their family.
I tried my best not to ellaborate because there is much more I wanted to add. I would just ask that if this is touching you in some way please leave a comment with your full name and email.
