Recently, Most of our family came down with one of the many viruses out there. It has lasted almost two weeks. I am thankful I got to be home to care for our youngest. I wouldn't have wanted it any other way. But I felt something missing. I felt restless. Of course, the weather was my first element I blamed it on. But then this morning waking up... knowing it was SUNDAY. I was happy... eager...ready to be "fed."
Walking through the church doors I anticipated who I would see and what Pastor might be preaching. It was a "hunger" I could feel that needed to be fed. I took my position in nursery to start. I got to hold the newest member of our church. It made me look in aww. The Lord is giving us a daughter you see. Something I never thought I would have. A chance to do things according to His Will. Not ours as parents. God is Good.
Then came our service. Sitting beside our oldest was a blessing to me. That child is destined for something bigger then he even realizes I think. Noo.. not Hollywood... God's Will in his life... He sang his heart out today. He makes my heart smile to hear him sing like that. It's a beautiful sound. After a thought provoking message I was left with time to reflect to think... I am so thankful for our church... I am thankful for that "hunger" inside... I am thankful for the faces of ones I care for there... I am sure I missed alot being home with sick family... Going today was just like going home again.
