What if.....
I'm very frustrated this morning. First my car locks froze and it took me forever to get work, then I realize I left my cell phone at home and we still haven't heard from the owner who is supposed to ultimately decide if we're open or not. I guess maybe I'm upset about having to come in. It stresses me out to drive in the weather like this ... it stresses me out to walk in it, to be honest. I think there's the same fear I had after I got in a car accident. It's a fear that says "what if". What if I fall down and hurt my back? or break a leg? or sprain an ankle? What if? There's also a part of me that says I'm not well balanced, its hard for me to walk confidently in the snow... how do others do it? Why can't I?
I am feeling very vulnerable today.
Food Drive -- Another year of the legacy
The CCK Food Drive, which I have now coordinated for 4 years, was once again successful. Saturday, the actual day of the drive, was busy and we had the Firestorm Team from Bethell, Cali here training and demonstrating the Holy Spirit and it was amazing! CCK has been doing the Food Drive for 19 years, which just amazes me! It is not just a good idea but a God idea. I love seeing people blessed but also seeing what the giftings and talents He has put in me accomplishes. I was struck this year on how for a moment I was discouraged when the numbers really didn't change as far as boxes and families given food, but I had this thought...
We met 110 families... we gave them food and sometimes just had to leave it on their doorstep since they weren't home. We had the chance to be a blessing, an angel of the Lord, to 110 families. That is no small thing. The Lord began to show me what that meant and my perspective changed.
More about Firestorm and the Food Drive later :) Work is VERY busy this week!
