My SWEET babies...

A neat story...

This morning I was jealous of my husband. This sounds crazy because I was jealous that he was going to mow in the inner city and I was staying home. After bathing my two kiddos, as well as myself, feeding everyone and getting them down for morning naps...I decided my attitude needed to change. I reached for my coffee cup, headed out to the deck to get some sunshine and started spending some time with God. Don't get me wrong...I love my children and I love being a mom. I also love missions. I love feeling that I am helping to spread Jesus' love. I love being Jesus' hands and feet. As I sat praying and trying to listen to God...I finally said, "Lord, if my mission is suppose to be being a mom and a teacher, then let me have a peace about it." A song that fit perfectly at that moment came into my mind. The funny thing about that is that I don't remember what the song was at this moment, but it was perfect for that moment.

Fast forward about 5 hours...

My family was sitting at our friends table. We were chatting and laughing. We started talking about church and then it came up...a missions opportunity. Matt and I were asked to be on a leadership committee that would be dealing with missions in the church! The best part is that it is a family thing...so my kids can join in and we don't have to find a sitter for these activities and meetings. Isn't God an amazing God?
