Strength

That is what God has been teaching me this past week. I have leaned solely on him because now of mine is left. I have always been one of those people who "if it can happen to someone then it happens to me". The two things I have always struggled with: finances and health. When I think, great now I can pay off some more bills and start saving, I end up owing even more for something or an added expense pops up. I never sick per say but I always am battling my allergies and sinuses. Just when I have my allergies better under control I get a sinus infection that makes me sleep all week, except for when I am at work. Well, that is how my past week was wasted and it ended with another unexpected financial thing. God has allowed me to lean on his strength this week and helped me make it work each day. I know he will bless me soon for fighting Satan's numerous attacks.

One a more positive note I will be starting a women's study (on Thursdays) with two or three other women from my church. I have been waiting to be apart of a group like this since I started at Harvest. Monday nights I am apart of a great group of believers who struggles with some of the same things I do. Wednesday nights I go to a bible study which is currently all about parables. Fridays I will once again be able to connect with the group of people my age (go figure that the first meeting after over a month off and I am too tired/sick to attend). Sundays I am in an Adult Bible Fellowship group learning more about the book of Daniel before Sunday service. By surrounding myself with these various unique groups of people I am hoping to grow more in God with other believers and not just learn about Him and meet new people.

Being in active relation with other believers is so important to me and who I am. I am even lucky enough to have a woman at work who I work with for at least several hours everyday to talk about faith with. Yes, we do talk to the babies also but if they are falling asleep in our laps or drinking a bottle it is good to talk faith with the other caregiver in the room:)

I hope God is doing a good work in all of you also. Please e-mail me, text me, facebook me, or something. I miss hearing from all of you. God Bless!!!
