Today

Today

David my brother in law who is visiting us for the summer, found a
ticket on the train to Chicago. Soon after we arrived and left the
train, a man came up asking for help in buying a ticket for the train.
David had one! Praise God that this you g man now had this ticket, as
God provides opportnities like this to impact the world in a positive
way.

Mom Reyes, my mom in law, told me a story about a homeless veteran who
died outside in the winter months in Alexandria. She said that he was
offered help and was off the streets for six months, but after that
time he was back homeless. Mom said that the man, Jimmy, may have had
trouble with his mind.
He may have had trouble keeping a job in his state of mind. That's
tragic.

God's awesome, wonderful work!

Here is an excerpt from an email that a co-worker has sent to me:   “ What church do you and your wife go to? I have been thinking alot lately about going to church. I have never really attended church and don't know much about the bible. But I have a desire to know. I feel strange just waltzing into a church and being lost.”   How awesome is the work of the Lord! And that we can take part in it! Woah! Alleluja!
Amazing! We came to church today, and Jessica was feeling down. During the sermon, which was about faith, a statement was said by the pastor about not dwelling on the past, nor "what if's". In this statement, God had put on the pastor's heart to say a series of "if we had only..." statements, and one of them was "Do not say, 'if we had only stayed in Texas, things would be different'..." As the pastor said this, Jessica and I looked at each other, as we could relate :) Allow Peace and Love to dwell in you!

To work on time

I had the intention of leaving to work on time this morning, but I left late because the freezing rain last night froze my door shut, and windows required heavy scraping. I was able to get in the car after some prying, and scraped a "hole" big enough to see ahead of me through the windshield (not best practice). After asking the Lord for help in getting to work on time, I arrived safely, and with a minute to spare :) Praise God!
