So a lot has happened in the past week....My daughter, Hadley, dunked a whole roll of toilet paper in the toilet & then proceeded to splash around in it causing little piles of toilet paper mush to fly all over the bathroom....By the time I got to her she was soaked w/ toilet water & toilet paper mush...there was mush sliding down the walls...on the floor & in her hair. Normally I would've exploded but the sight of her was hilarious. I wanted so bad to be mad at her but I couldn't. She just smiled her sweet smile...covered in water & paper mush & I just laughed.
I have started a weekly encouragement e-mail every Friday morning. I send it to a few friends & relatives to kick their day off to a good start & to let them know I'm thinking of them. I've recieved really good feedback about this. I really can feel God moving in my life. I believe that this is the first time I can actually say this w/ 100% certainty. I've been praying for a while for God to show me what He wants me to do. I often yearn to feel needed & God has came through loud & clear to continue the e-mail & also to witness to more people. Ontop of the weekly e-mail I've been praying for some people @ work. I've prayed to open a door to speak w/ them about God's love & today the door opened. I gave it all I had & know that God was right there w/ me. I feel like I can shout from the rooftops w/ this new confidence I have in God. On my lunch, I smiled & held the door open for a couple & the lady smiled but had a bewildered expression on her face.....You know the quote "smile, it'll make some people wonder"? Well judging by her expression I totally shocked her. *S* It's really the small things we do for people that could make the most impact. A smile, saying bless you when they sneeze, letting someone go ahead of you in the checkout or in traffic. The thing is you never know how someone's day is going or what they're going through. I have this overwhelming passion to encourage & lift up as many people I can. That's what God has called me to do....I know this in my heart!!!! Thanks again for your time....I love you..& remember to Prase God at all times!!!!!
