Thank God for the WORD!

Well, the last time I was on here I wrote that I wanted God to speak to my heart.  The situation I am faced with seems impossible, but with God all things are possible.  God does not lie, whatever he says can be taken to heart.  So every since I said I needed God to speak to my heart He has been doing just that.  It has happened in many ways.  God keeps speaking to me telling me that everything is going to be all right.  It also seems that every church service I attend I hear the same message, have faith in God, He's working things out for you.  So I've just got to hold on to that. 

Today at church our Bishop preached about how we lost our church almost two years ago to arson.  I still remember that horrible feeling of being told our church was burning to the ground, but God has done so much for us since that terrible day.  We didn't understand it at the time, but God has allowed us to meet some awesome people and to really be blessed as a result of the fire.  If God turned something so horrible into something so wonderful, with opportunities which we would have never had if it hadn't been for the fire, then I know he can turn my bad situation around.

Ok, enough about that.  I haven't been up to much else lately.  This week I'm heading to the west coast for a couple of courses for my job and I am excited about that.  It will get me out of my routine and on Tuesday at least I'll be able to sleep for a bit.  God knows just what we need and when we need it. So I am thankful for the trip coming up.  I just gave my mom a copy of my itinerary, it will be a busy trip, but nevertheless a time for me to break routine.  Sometimes a break in routine is so necessary, especially with everything going on here.  I was thinking that I will take some time in my hotel room to pray, I mean really pray. 

I will also take some time on the plane and in the evenings to catch up on some reading.  Right now I am reading "Little Bee" by Chris Cleave.  It is good so far.  I have slowed down quite a bit with my reading since I have been busy settling in to my new job as well as doing all of the wedding planning and keeping up with a busy church life!  I wanted to read more books this year than I did last year (I keep a book journal) and the way things are looking right now, I'm not sure it's going to happen.  Anyway, I think I am going to wrap this entry up.  The bottom line is, God is good, he's working things out and I love him!  Good night all!
