The children and I have returned from a beautiful week at my mother's house near Yosemite! We attended Vacation Bible School at her church, and I was a "crew leader" for 11 kiddos for the week. Their ages were from 5 yrs to 11 yrs. We had a blast! During the week, I prayed for each and every one of my "darlings" and asked God to open their hearts to Him. Jacob, an adorable quiet boy of 10, came to me and told me that he felt God tugging him. I led him to receive Christ. He cried, I cried. It was a blessing!
During the week, I prayed for myself to be guided ever so simply in peace and His will everyday. Each day, I felt Him reaching in and touching me softly with His loving words. The wisdom given to me is sweetness to my heart. 12 years ago, God called me. I felt this intimacy again this past week. I am still in that "bubble of love" as some call it. I wish he was "physically" right here just walking with me.
The children learned so much and their audible prayer life has filled with wisdom. Tears swell from my eyes when they pray at dinner or at bed time.
I am doing a awesome bible study on the fruits of the spirit with my friends online through a dear friends blog. The study is by Calvin Miller. Don't just read the following, but LIVE it...
"Our feet carry his message. Our hands break his living bread. Our minds hold his vision, and our hearts beat with his compassion." Change the Our for MY!
On an Organic note - today, I harvested my peas and lettuce. I am so excited for a beautiful natural salad tomorrow with dinner and sharing it with my family. Common carrots...You can do it! They take 4EVER!
God Bless,
Linds
