One of the sweetest parts of my week is to be in our ladies Bible study on Tuesday mornings. This group was brand new to me in January, and our topic was learning to let the Holy Spirit teach you from the Bible as you learn to study it. We learned about cross referencing, studying a specific book, one chapter at a time, about how to apply historical significance to the writings and teaching…..and then God began to show us the real lessons. How the Bible was real and alive and though each of us different, how He uses the same passages each week to touch our lives in totally different ways. How even if the Scripture you read is one you know, how God can turn on a new lightbulb of understanding of His love for you by giving you a new perception to ponder in your time reading the Word.
Yesterday I had on my Prescriptive Learning Solutions Specialist hat as I worked with a neighboring court and district on a specific child’s issues. It was a great day in that God so allowed all things to come together for good and there was affirmation that indeed sometimes good is achieved in a short amount of time. Yay God!
An afternoon at our church was an exciting informative time. Madison is singing this Sunday thanks to our sweet sweet children’s minister who is singing with her. Madison rarely gets to be in productions because visitation to her dad and step mom always seem to fall on the Christmas and Spring performance Sundays…so she practices all fall and then doesn’t get to sing….kinda heart breaking for the girl who likes to “belong” so Miss Debbie is fixing her wagon and she’s getting to sing Sunday morning.
I told Brother Jackie that we simply knew we loved him and we’d figure out the reasons why later when he moved to our church…..and the reasons why grow daily. The staff we have are amazing and I am privileged to work and know them!
It is prom time for boy…so we are going to pick out his tux on Saturday…..its like dressing Ken for Barbie….and much fun since we truly enjoy the Barbie he’s going with. She’s intelligent, beautiful and God centered…can’t ask for more than that! We don’t generally allow dating, but do allow them to hang out at our home or do church and ball activities together….its a good time for all.
Mrs. Goofy amazed me again yesterday with the way she can simply make art happen that captures what I see in my mind. Its a true gift and one I am so thankful for when I need an excellent graphic artist… Lady Trista has that gift as well and I am blessed to have them both in my life!
The evening brought delightful family time, then I had the pleasure of working with Author Jennie P. Martin on a project we’re working on over the phone. She is like sunshine to my day each time we work together. Later a new friend called and we worked on a Women’s ministry project for church that is so exciting to watch God make happen. God is indeed a God who covers the details…we have more than enough help to cover what he asks of us with each project we’re facing…..and its simply amazing how He sends the help!
Yesterday Mt. Washmore had a bit of a landslide when 3 more loads left its presence…hoping today to lose my mountain chain and have a new tourist designation….Berry Rolling hills….there is simply something calming about order in my home and I am working on the small steps to overcome the chaos! we’ll see!
