Aw Rhonda…….. I needed to hear this, THIS very moment as I’m feeling a little down. I took a short rest after church in my very small space. I still need to mop the floors before I head out to work in childcare for two hours for the new young marrieds. I have to admit, sometimes I wish I didn’t have to do that, but I look forward to seeing the little ones. There are these siblings of boy,and a girl, 3 and 4 years old and they make it worthwhile. My daughter won’t be joining me due to homework. BTW she just took a midterm for one of her classes and got a B!

Thank you friend! And I love what your comment…I remember the feeling of dreading my Sunday afternoons because the dread of getting up early all week was looming!! I loved my job as well…once I was finally up and going! I can’t imagine reading SRT every morning BEFORE work like many of you do!! Praise God for your diligence and I know He rewards his children!! But for years I thank God every day that I am able to take my time in the mornings. I mean, most of it is due to not being able to work with my back pain, so it’s a catch 22, BuT I”M SO grateful my husband can work and provide for us and that I am able to online train here and there for some work on my own schedule. If only I could get paid to do the things I LOVE for the Lord like lead small groups and be a greeter! lol! No I’m thankful that WAS my career in fitness therapy for 30 plus years! It was a blessing!! Anyway—Love you and your heart for kids and making a way for yourself knowing it would be hard. Not taking the little things for granted, living with your mother in a small room that is not ideal! God sees you and has it all worked out for you just as he wants—Which reminds me of the preaching this morning—that Paul was saved and USED by God..but he had horrible misery and things going wrong, imprisoned, ship-wrecked, bit by a snake…You would thing following God would by great, but it is an ongoing sacrifice for the eternal kingdom and victory after this fleeting life!! NO time for complaining and self-deprivation! It’s time to serve, with boots on the ground, fighting a war for the Lord!! (yelling this in my mind as I’m in my recliner in tropical paradise…doing nothing!! lol) BUT you know we can do a lot basically on social media these days as well and be far reaching in ways we will never know!!
