Peace, Peace, Wonderful Peace

I had an awesome time in prayer this weekend. Proved to me yet again why I get up early on my only day off to go to the church. There's usually only three of us there, and this week was no exception. I am dealing with so many things in my heart, spirit, mind, etc. right now; and the Lord addressed each and every one of those. I felt like I had just taken a shower after a year of lying in the mud, like I had just woken up from a really great nap. The Spirit of God is amazing, and it is truly what sustains me. I needed that time of refreshing more than I can say, and I'm thankful that it came. I thought I was going to share, but it's just too important to share with other people right now. It was a "me and God" thing, and it was precious to me.

I got to meet Austin's Maria this weekend. That was totally awesome. We clicked right away when talking on Facebook, and meeting in person was much the same. I have never met a person for the first time and hugged them, but Maria and I did that....lol. I am so happy that Austin is happy, I can't even describe it.

I was also priveleged to be able to comfort precious friends during their times of loss this weekend. We spent most of the weekend at the funeral home, but instead of feeling drained, I felt peaceful. God has truly blessed me to be a friend to and minister to so many people. I saw it as an opportunity to serve and love, and embraced it full force.

I also talked to my love, Nena :) and heard some exciting news from her.

I got to see Jennie, Steve and Margaret, Dalton, Pastor Moore and Mrs. Angel, Mrs. Pat, Amanda, Shawn, Joey and Patti.....and a host of other wonderful people who have meant so much to me that I haven't seen in awhile.

Thank you, Lord for great friends and family, for times of refreshing, for answers to prayer. You are awesome!
