Dinner #33

Another beautiful sunny Saturday in the summer. My sister is coming over and we get to just hang out in the warm weather together. It has truly been a blessing and "there are no words" to describe how I feel and the gratitude I feel to God. It really is true that when you obey God, He unlocks His power in your life. I see so many answers to prayers and this 40 day "bubble" has been incredible. I say "bubble" because I feel extremely protected by my Father. He is not allowing anyone or anything in my presence that is not of Him. I am quite aware that I cannot stay in this "bubble" forever but I am enjoying it for now none the less. For now I am in my office and I see someone out of my window doing his normal activity. The Lord places on my heart to share my story through my blog with him and his wife. I feel a sense of sadness coming from him/them. So I write down a note with the blog and I tell them God wants them to read it and they will be blessed and if they like it to let me know and I will forward it to them daily. I ask Christian to deliver the note. I know now that God is making me accountable to share His message. I also know that I am not responsible for it after that. I cannot force someone to read it for they have the free will to...or not to. But I know that God is taking me out of my comfort zone of privacy because your faith and God's message cannot be private....it is to be shared no matter how uncomfortable it makes you feel. Well the letter that determines whether or not I qualify for unemployment comes and I open it with my husband by my side. I see lots of writing and my eyes zero in on one sentence.....you are disqualified for benefits. I calmly take the letter and put it away and accept it. I call my family and deliver the news and everyone is shocked, alittle angry and scared for me...."what are you going to do?"...........I am going to wait upon the Lord that is what I am going to do. "Are you going to appeal?"......no I gave my interview, I gave my story and I spoke the truth, there is nothing more to say. God has a different plan for me and the money will need to come another way. I also see it as an opportunity to get going on my home business. No time to waste. It must now come to the front burner. Lord you are a faithful God and I will not waiver. I trust you. I love you and I know your truth will all be revealed. For now, I will enjoy my day with my sister and take in the sunshine.
