The 2nd Annual Gal Corral!
I can hardly stand to see a child in need. It shreds my heart out, ripping sinew by sinew until nothing is left but a dull ache and a scream towards God that says, “Can’t you do something about this?” And His response is usually, “Why don’t you take a stab at it…”
Soaring Wings Ranch is a home for children needing a second chance. Whether through neglect, abuse, or another circumstance, children are brought into a “spacious place” full of love, respect, discipline, and of course, Scripture.
At exactly this time two years ago, I was introduced to the concept of “Ranch Hands,” a group of ladies that would be forming to somehow in some way, further bless the kids and house parents out at the ranch. We didn’t have anything to go on except desire. And God blessed that.
I think the vision of Ranch Hands will always remain the same: love the house parents and kids in a practical and tangible way. The strategy will be ever changing and morphing into whatever God lays on our hearts.
So, last night, the second annual “Gal Corral” took place, introducing other women to the Ranch. I only have one word for last night and that is “Awe.” There were almost 200 women in attendance! The fact that the event went off beautifully and without a hitch is one thing, but to have that many more ladies exposed to the vision of Ranch Hands was quite another. I was simply blown away at Mighty God.
My prayer for each child that enters the Ranch has been that he or she is redeemed and also restored. I have been praying that God would work a true healing in each life starting from the inside and working outwards from there. The Ranch provides a place of peace and security for each child. I believe that Jeremiah 33:6 can become a reality for these kids once they receive their new God-given home. “Nevertheless, I will bring health and healing; I will heal my people and will let them enjoy abundant peace and security.”
Lord, we give thanks to you. You are good and your love endures forever. Thank you for letting us have a small part in affecting the lives of kids who need a good dose of hope.

After the first shot, I asked him if he had ever done this photography thing before, cause the guy knows how to pose! He smiled and said that his band had been photographed a lot in the past. It definitely showed…Bill made my job mighty easy!
