Week 7: Baker goes Beyond!

If you move, He will move! Just ask Krista Baker, who stepped out on a leap of faith and has seen God move in mighty ways. After being challenged to go Beyond Krista decided she wanted to give free dance lessons to underprivileged children.

Krista said, “I have started the dance lessons at the elementary school and they are going amazing! Around thirty girls come each week and we have three different classes for different grade groups. The girls are precious, God has definitely hand picked them and hopefully he’ll start working in their hearts.”

What a blessing it is to hear the effects of a successful Beyond project! Because of Krista’s leap of faith thirty girls lives are being penetrated for Christ. And it doesn’t stop here, there is more to Krista’s Beyond. She has decided to host a benefit dance recital in March featuring the girls at her high school. Krista said all of the proceeds will go to underprivileged children.

“God is definitely at work and everything seems to be falling into place,” Krista said. “It has been an eye opener for me. Yet it is challenging trying to fit dance together with presenting the Gospel. I know God is in control and I thank him for this huge blessing in my life.”

God never promised stepping out on faith would be easy and without challenges. But he did promise to remain faithful to us through it all! He has given you specific talents and abilities for you to use for his glory, just as Krista has illustrated. Never quit seeking God’s will in your life. Take that leap of faith and see how God can move!
