Lessons to take into the weekend!

So this week has been both a personal and spiritual growing time for me. To start out the week one of my little angels (who shall remain nameless:=) flooded my upstairs bathroom. This lead to a complete catastrophe that let to a hole in my dining room ceiling, carpet damage and accessing damage cost..as all thing come in three's..shorty after I turned on my fan, being it was a surprising 85 degrees, and my fan light fixture came  crashing down and shattered glass all over. THEN the smoke detector ran out of juice! Now ordinarily  this would not be all that irritating but after the day I was having..it was terrible! I have to admit that I burst into to tears!! I prayed to be calm and amazingly.. I was! 

So I have never been much for praying because I have always felt like i was doing it wrong! I felt such a calm and belief in prayer that it opened up my eyes. Later in the week I was offered a FREE trip to Florida..offered by a man..who I am not dating..much less married to. It seemed like an opportunity I just could not pass up. However, as I thought about it more, I thought to myself..is this something you can do and still feel like me, still feel like I am holding my morals and my promise to the lord?! NO! I am so proud of myself! I feel like I have reached some kind of personal growth that make me sooo happy! Thank you lord!! :-) 

I have been feeling so grateful for the friends I have made in the last 6 months..Iam grateful for the advice that I have been given. I am thankful for people giving me a moral slap in the face :-) not saying well that would be fun, but saying, how is this going to make you feel..how is this going to effect you later..thank you Becky! (i'm sorry for being a flaky scrapbook buddy:-)

So basically I learned this week the power of prayer and the belssing of friends!
