Today..... is what you make of it...

Sounds like a simple enough phrase, doesn't it? Today.... is what you make of it.. As I sit here and ponder that thought, my day is full ahead of me. Yes, it will be a busy one. When I leave this room I will be fixing breakfast for hubby and me. Then we will get ready and head to church this morning.

We really enjoy our church. I love that the worship can go on for awhile - what I mean is that it isn't 3 songs and we're done, cause we are on a schedule. Yes, our worship can sometimes go on for an hour, but it is led by the Holy Spirit. You can just feel God's presence at times - and at times I even look around to see if I see signs of angels in the room, it is that intense.

The messages are good too, and right now it is on the Holy Spirit. The more I think I understand Who the Holy Spirit is, the more I learn that I don't have a clue. Yes, I know that He is part of the Trinity - God the Father, Jesus the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The Comforter whom Jesus said would come after He was crucified. But it is good to always learn more.

After church I am hoping I will be motivated to get some things done! Still have boxes to go through and get rid of lots of papers. Tonight we will have what is called "Encounter" at church - which is nothing but worship - no preaching. It goes for an hour and a half and we do plan to attend. Our church is small, which makes it nice and we are getting to know everyone.

Yesterday was an interesting day. We went to a place called "Feed my starving children" with a group from our church. We bagged 'food' to be sent to El Salvador. In this bag is a small scoop of vitamins (powder form), a small scoop of dehydrated vegetables, a cup of soy, and a cup of rice. Then the bag is weighed and sealed and packed. They say that one bag can feed six children. Amazing! I believe they put 16 bags in a box - and we alone (out of about 10 teams) boxed around 24 boxes. Others did more, some did less. All within about 1 and 1/2 hours. We then clean up our table and the next group comes in. It was an amazing experience. I'm hoping to get some of the grandchildren to go next time.


I need to get off here and get breakfast done, hit the shower and get ready for church. I was reading in "The Circle Maker" again this morning about how we need to have a dream. My dreams died a long time ago, I think. I need to learn to dream again. I have let words and actions destroy my heart and I must rise about it and dream again.

Do you need to dream again? Join me on this journey. Let's dream together of what our heart desires.

Blessings!
