It's really weird...all I do is see blessing after blessing and still it seems that I am not satisfied. One kid can say something like (about YG) "I don't want to be here" or "so and so doesn't like you." and it blows up my whole world! Am I here to make people like me or am I here to share Jesus? Sometimes it's one or the other, and sometimes it's both. I honestly wish that people who aren't in my shoes and who are so critical would just evaporate and let me do my job! I mean this weekend was great! No rain at the Golf Tourney, raised over 5k and no one got blown away by the cane! Yet it wasn't the storm that rained on my parade, it was some kid...I don't know? Satan really can get you when he wants to sometimes. (Did you know that if you rearrange the letters in SANTA you get SATAN? oooooo)
Anyway...doing the very best that I can and honestly if that isn't good enough then oh well...
Light week this week...Fall Fest with the little kiddies is this Wednesday...
I'm praying for some folks to get through their funks that they are in. Faith is always ups and downs and we just need to stick with it. Refuge is going well...hard topics coming up...I pray that we are all focused and ready. I think God is about to do something even more amazing with this group! We'll see!?! I'm feeling stale and tired today...battles all around...I hurt for the kids that have to make it in this world today...super tough! I pray that they see someone who cares and loves then, in me. It kills me to see the crap they deal with every day...I know that many of the smiles are hiding hurt and distrust and scars. Tough...
Anyway...
