Day of small things
Our Lord is a loving God. I have good things to look forward to over the coming weekend, particularly Sunday. Yesterday and today, Mitchelle mentioned to me that she really wants to come to church this Sunday - this came from her! And I have a good feeling that this time, she just might.
Also, I have been working really hard at my job. Every week I end up having to work over-time, and I was starting to get discouraged, tired mostly. I have even had to lend my help to one lawyer that I don't enjoy working for. But I did it and the Lord gave me the wisdom to deal well with my tasks. And just as I was getting discouraged, this same lawyer came in today and gave me a box of Belgium chocolates for the hard work. I was very happy and my frown quickly turned upside down. But I know that this was from the Lord and all Praise goes to Him
Despise not the day of small things. Today may have been "small" things, but they were good things. I have been showered by God's love. He just has that special touch, that special way of making you feel valued!
It is wonderful that I got to taste the fruit of my labour at work, however, I am earnestly praying that the Lord will give me to taste of the fruit of my labour through Mitchelle.

I will pray for Mitchelle. It is exciting that she wants to come to church. And I will try to stop coveting your Belgian chocolates.
Oh, and as tomorrow is your last Awana session, I will remember to pray especially for Nicole.

Thanks, Angie, that is sweet. Trust me that if you were here, I would have shared my chocolates with you!
Thank you, Matthew.

Oh, oh, would you share them with me too? *laughs* Little things do make your day so much better! It's like getting little love notes from God.

of course I would Carey!!!
Here's an update thought, Mitchelle didn't show up at church today. She has a hard time with mornings, she's always late for work, but still, I had my hope high for today.
Ah well, there's always next Sunday.
