raindrops


He causes it to rain on the just and the unjust. He is faithful. As we go into the weekend may you experience God and His faithfulness. God before you, God behind you, God beside you, God above you, God below you, God within you.

reasons for everything

I always knew there was a reason that I hadn't dated anyone. I logically knew this, and yet somewhere deep inside there always was this question of why am I different from everyone else? I think on of the puzzel pieces fell into place today when I was in my relationship class. We were talking about traits that have been shown to contribute to a successful marriage. And we were talking about the top things we look for in a potential mate. I have always had high standards for a potential mate. And there are a few things that I am completely unwilling to compromise on (i.e. a relationship with Jesus). As we were sitting there, my professor mentioned that one time he had his students write out the top 5 characteristics they want in a mate and then compare it to their current partner. He said that a shocking number of the students had less than half of the characteristics in their current partner. That was when I realized it. I have never dated because I never found anyone who was up to...

Tonight was movie night. Pops has my dear Trudy fixed up once again, so I decided to take her for a spin to the video store where Poppy and I picked up three movies.

Adjusting

Here I sit in my room surrounded by a huge mess that is begging me to clean it up and put it away...such is unpacking. However, I thought I might put it off for just a bit as I write this. A few thoughts... I love my church family. We had our last Sunday service today...yes, my church is officially dissolving...and yes, it makes me sad. However, the timing is right in my life for what God has called me to. I no longer have anything standing between me and what I am supposed to be doing. Today was special. We had our service at a church member's house, and then we had fellowship and lunch. After lunch I just enjoyed watching everyone interact and enjoy one another. You know the friends that you can be apart for an extended period of time and then pick right back up where you left off...that's my church family. My heart swelled from all the love and joy that surrounded me. What a blessing they all are in my life. H, you were missed!!! Another thought that I had yesterday. I think...
