the gentle whisper

so it is said that God speaks in the gentle whisper....while my two adorable blessings are speaking in more of a rolling thunder on yet another day off from school (yes, we are closed today!) here are some things i hear God whispering to me:

*rejoice, again i say rejoice
*this is the day I have made, rejoice and be glad
*do all things without complaining
*your children are a blessing to you, a gift from me
*love Me with all your heart, soul, mind
*for I know the plans I have for you (funny....b/c i had all sorts of plans for myself today!)
*I told you I had a great sense of humor!!!


that is just a sampling of what i have heard God say to me in the past hour!! i guess He has so much to teach me through his great sense of humor!!

honestly, i'm truly thankful that we have a dry house (mostly) and power on. i've never seen so many roads in my town shut down!!

oh...how could i forget!??!? we think, THINK, the bat might be gone!!! praise God for that!!

the "calling"

okay - so it's been awhile since i've ranted...and it's time! it is beautiful outside and i'm sitting inside my makeshift office at the church. i am lucky enough to have a door that opens to the outside so it is wide open and i'm loving that. but as i'm working here today i feel the need to rant so enjoy.... being in my position i often have to ask people to help out. you know, volunteer to teach or work in the nursery or teach or hang out with the kids, you know - volunteer! i love all the responses i get. i am particularly fond of the "i don't like kids one" - it doesn't go over real well with me when they have 3 of their own. hmm??? but the one that really gets my goat is the "i don't feel called to that." argh...really!?!?!!?!? well, i didn't feel called to wipe my kids bottoms either, but it is a good thing i did it anyways. surprisingly, everyone feels called to the waterpark though! now, let me back up a ...
