From the Ground Up
I orginally had a lot more things to say about today and yesterday. But by some random sequence of buttons that I pushed, Blogger backtracked and my whole post was deleted. *sigh* Modern technology. Can't live with it....
So anyway, I'll just try to summarize in one brief paragraph. My new job at the Chick-Fil-A in Haywood Mall is going great. No problem thus far although that could change when I move up to register duty tomorrow morning. Oh well. Whatever happens, I'll give it my best shot. I'll probably be getting my car serviced at Lube King pretty soon. The windshield wiper blades are hanging loose, which is a BAD thing considering the rainy weather of late. It's also due for an oil change and a tire rotation anyway. Choir practice was excellent last night; it's always great to have that group to come back to. We won't be singing this Sunday morning, but we still managed to rehearse several pierces for future services. I'll never get tired of the relentless banter that carries on between our sections when Mr. Kirby isn't listening (or when he really is, which is the point). Lots and lots of laughs all around.
Before I wrap things up (and proceed to strangle Blogger -_-), I want to close out with a word of prayer. Dear Lord, You are so amazing and indescribable in the works that You do and the little miracles that you perform in our lives each and every day. Thank you for blessing me with caring friends, a loving family, a good home, and my work. Lord, I can't take any of the credit for these things. None of it happened for my glory. It's all Yours, Father. Please help me to keep a servant's attitude and heart in everything I do. So many times, I fall short of the standard that Your Son Jesus set for us. Thank you for sending the Holy Spirit to convict me and to forgive me when I fall short. Lord, I want to lift up my friends working in the mission field this summer; Lauren at the Connie Maxwell Home, Taylor, Chris, EA, TJ and Kat at Seesalt, Liz in Salkehatchie, and Jon at Camp McCall. There are also so many that are going far out into the world; Hilary in Arizona, Jen in Ecuador, and Rodney's group in Cuba. Thank you for blessing me with their friendships, Lord. Please watch over them and keep them safe in their travels. I pray also for my friend Amanda as she seeks work this summer. Please guide her in her search, and give her the strength and patience to keep seeking Your will for her life. I love You, Lord. Thank you again for sending Your Son, Jesus, to die for our sins so that we can have the promise of eternal life in Heaven with You, Father. Thank for for molding and shaping us from the ground up to create a work that is pleasing to You. It's in Your holy name that I pray, amen.
