this weekend our fellowship had a conference that was amazing. i was so proud that AB could be there and represent God in such a way. it was good to have AB and T here. it was really good. i also got to be a little part of this conference and i feel like it's a break through for me. i won't go into detail, but i am excited that i got to share (although at the time i felt so nervous that i thought maybe i would throw up) and that i feel again that the Lord is good and He's totally in control of what is to come next.
it was a good and fun day. in the morning i got to do my sharing and had an awesome service. lunch was at church and we even got to see the new baby that PR and T had... we're so excited for CPDB to have come. life means so much more... thank you God for babies... anyway after lunch, A and i had a good nap. then grandma L and R went to the thrift store for our church old school service in the evening. people were supposed to dress up in decades outfits. grandma L and grandpa G and i got prizes for having the best outfits... :) i didn't get to have an acceptance speech, but thanks to R i won the prize... she was my stylist.
God is amazing in that He's giving me this to enjoy here so as i leave for our two week trip, i could have memories through the tough times. memories of how far He has brought me... that i could again see Him in the midst of hardship while i face big things.
i haven't really thought about what's going to happen in four days because of getting ready for this weekend, but i think tomorrow it will hit... we're leaving on our trip. we leave this thursday and will be gone for two weeks. it's going to be good, so real, but good... so hard, but good...
please pray for us!!! we need it. all of us!!!
