Well today is going to be the start of a busy week. We need to be super mindful of our time and as I tell C we need to be productive with our actions. This is not the time for leisurely rides, long talks on the phone. For we have set a goal and have a task at hand that we must adhere to. But I thankfully am organized and "live" for this kind of pressure so it is all good. I feel alittle run down but I must push through and know the Lord will provide the strength I need. I was watching my morning TBN broadcast and I use it as my morning devotions sometimes and they said that we, as Christians, are never to borrow money. I honestly did not know that and I started thinking and I liked when she said the Lord is to be our source and if the income does not come in, then we do not need whatever it was we thought we did. I like that concept and will apply that to our house. It is the same thought of not using a credit card unless you can pay for the balance in full at the end of that month. I just didn't see the connection. Thank you Lord for always teaching and guiding us. Well my morning ministry with the kids on Sunday was fun. I was responsible for opening up myself and waiting for the parents to bring in their children. So I was responsible for checking them all in and training a new girl. It made me feel like I was making a difference and we had 15. Pretty normal but boy were they rammy. :-) Quick story...during church service I noticed the crowds (we had a guest speaker and it was raining out...not sure which brought in more people) and kept keeping an eye out. I usually spread myself out because I like the space but this time I felt "led" to sit real close to C and make room. The service was 20+ minutes in but the people kept coming in. I honestly was surprised the usher did not approach me sooner but finally one did and asked if the seat next to me was taken. I told him no and that I tried to make it obvious so they could seat someone. Well they asked if someone could sit next to me and of course I said yes and when I turned to see the person walking towards me I almost had the breath taken out of me.....for it was a former co-worker of mine from where I just left. As a matter of fact I hired her 16 years prior and we both were stunned and started laughing. God was amazing because we were able to talk after and I was able to tell her what "really" happened with me and why I left so suddenly. It was none of the drama or lies she heard. God is the ultimate redeemer, isn't he? So she smiled and said , "I knew it." But God will draw people to us when they need it and she was able to share with us her feelings and thoughts and I told her I wanted to share my spiritual journey with her each day so God has added yet another to this miraculous email list. Thank you Lord for continuing to move in our lives. And a quick shout out to Danny who placed all my cd's into our computer and I am able now to listen to my praise and worship music as I type these words. I no longer commute so I really don't get the chance to listen to my music and I have missed it. So not only is God the ultimate redeemer, He is also the master restorer because not only do I have my music back but none of them skip.....good as new!Thanks Danny. XOXO
