WARNING: LONG POST! BUT, READ IT. ;)
This time last week, many of us were sitting together in that small living room, studying God's word. I felt lost today as I sat alone at my desk and stared at numbers all day. Lots and lots of numbers. Many of you and your parents sent texts of encouragement or just to say hello and I will say it made the day go by so much faster and it kept a smile on my face. The first day back to work is always the hardest, but I had the memories of this week tucked away in my heart. I shared some of our week with my boss and as I did, the song, "God is on the Move," came on. I slammed on breaks and had to apologize! God is good and so awesome!!
Tonight a few of the youth surprised me as I was walking Lilly with a milkshake, cupcakes and cookies! Here they come tooting that horn and catching me in my gown! They knew today was a little tough being back in reality. As we sat at the table and I listened to their laughs, I thought about how this is how we should be as a body of Christ. Supporting each other, surrounding each other, and being there for one another, even when we don't ask for it. You guys make me want to be a better person. You have shown me more love in the past week than I ever imagined. THANK YOU! to all of you!
This week we will be getting together and we are going to continue learning about our man, King David and we will be in 1 Samuel. We will be talking about labels. I'm pumped and ready to keep this energy going! I hope to see you there. Bring a friend!!
Upcoming this next month:
August 8th: Saying so long to our college freshmen. Please be at the church at 6:30 pm. We will be going to eat at Wings Etc. in Shelby and to Sweet Frog for dessert. We will take the church bus so that we are all together.
We will also attend the Outreach for August and will touch up Miss Maggie's porch and mow Rudy' s yard. I will post dates as soon as we have them.
April 27th: Friday Night Football- Cookout in Lincolnton after the game. I know we will all be at different schools, so we will carpool and meet up!
September 3rd: Mud DodgeBall Tournament- more information to come soon.
Pray for each other and for our hearts to stay on fire! Pray for the ones who rededicated their life to Christ or accept Jesus as their Savior. Pray for our church.
I love ya and I mean it.
