I was having a very difficult day yesterday, (one of my down days). I am doing a lot better this morning, thank you for asking. Anyways. God has really been keeping me going.
First I have the sweetest bloggy friend in her. Her encouraging emails and care have really helped me (I have told her so personally).
Then I read this
Laurel Wreath writes Let Your Fire Burn! She shares all about how the holy spirit keeps our faith fires going. Laurel Wreath has quickly become one of my favorite encouragement blogs. If you’ve never visited her blog, now is the time to go and get a quick faith-lift for the moment.
from her. And I can not begin to tell you how she blessed my heart on a down day. I even bragged to my husband and Mom.
Then this morning I HAD to go onto the middle school campus because they were collecting fundraiser money and I am the PTA treasurer. I did. not. want. to. go. I got up this morning at 6am trying to come up with every excuse. Well I showed up, they had tons of women covering for me collecting the money from the fundraiser, so they said “go home and get better”. I was almost skipping out of the school. I just did not want to face tons of middle schoolers with my mouth rubber band shut.
Then the cherry on top. I come into work this morning (I have a very flexible job), well my boss calls me and says, “I did not want to send you flowers because they just die, I told him no worries; you made my family dinner and have gone above and beyond” and then he said, “well I just want you to know you have a 9am pedicure apt tomorrow and you will go and then bill me for the time”. I about fell out of my chair. I said “I am not going to bill you for the time”, and he said, “yes you are because I am asking you to!”. I stared to cry.
Oh my goodness how I feel God’s love around me, and I will have pretty toes to boot!
