Fleece Offering – H

My Why for Misfit Island and what ever else comes from this venture.

I gave a “Fleece offering” to Christ one night in prayer. I needed to know if this was really His plan for me… All my impressions etc were they from Him? This prayer or plea happened to fall on a Friday night. We had just finished watching The Chosen Season 5 in theaters so I was raw. I was ready to get real with Christ about some thoughts I’ve been having about me, Matthew & our farm, Misfit Island. On my knees I went saying out loud the impressions I was feeling. Then I remembered the LDS General Conference was the following day. (this was back in April 2025) I wanted a sign from God. I asked Him for one of the apostles to say the word “misfit” that would be my sign. Well the next day Saturday afternoon session, Elder Dieter Uchtdorf said it. It actually happened!!! What I prayed for about Misfit Island, these impressions me and Matthew have been talking about is in fact God’s will for us! I was sobbing. I have rewatched that line over again and it still gives me chills “Just because you a different than those around you, doesn’t make you a misfit, it makes you a needed part of the body of Christ.” Isn’t that beautiful!

Sign given! It has taken me several months to build up the courage to even do this blog as part of the impressions. I don’t want an audience. I don’t want the eyes this will bring. I’m not wanting that part and I’m trusting Him that this is all part of His plan.
