Dear Family,
I feel blessed that I can be helpful. I enjoy working overtime always and am glad
to be of service. Yay! I am enjoying 10 hour days and still have
energy after that to help with youth group.
God is showing me so much about what I can handle and what does and
doesn’t wear me down. I am excited to
consider a future where I have more energy!
Please pray with me as I interview for desk jobs. I figured out my sitting pain is mostly
because we have bad chairs and a wood bench at home.
Youth group remains a great place to seek, learn about, and
grow in God. I was encouraged Wednesday
night when several students came even though their friends did not. One even told me that they are getting closer
to God and felt called to come! Yay! God is at work all around us!
Funny things are also still said during group time. I recall someone asking where so and so
was. The answer, “He’s probably annoying
a small child,” was silly. Also, when
Bobby said, “Guess the theme for camp.”
Someone answered, “Pineapple.” Sometimes random answers are the best. When someone tried to answer a blank with,
“Hellish” for We live in a H----- world.
Someone else had to mention, “It’s because he’s public schooled.” I enjoy the laughter and fun we have. Joking around and learning about God! Bonus!
Our children are working and in school. They are productive members of society and I
also get to hear from them an, “I love you,” or a, “Hello.” How blessed I feel when they pick up the
phone. I am glad that there is some
connection even in the business.
I enjoyed working 57 hours this week and look forward to doing
it again next week. My favorite thing is
that Bobby mowed the lawn and took the garbage to the curb and back without me
even mentioning it. I am amazed that I
still had energy to watch a play and am still enjoying life. I thought I might be a lot more tired but
life remains wonderful. This is because
of Bobby. He’s thankful and loving 😊
Yay! Also, the ability to keep on reminds
me of Isaiah 40:31, “Those who
hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like
eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.” Because the kids no longer need me as a caregiver,
I have opportunity to work and I am so glad I can.
May you also find joy in your
journey. May you work as unto the Lord
and find it a privilege to do the tasks set before you.
Much
love,
Cristy
By the way the answer to the
fill in the blank is, “Hungry.”
