You stopped by mine not long ago.<BR/>I saw you at Lelia's and I'm going to be doing the Behind Those Eyes study with you all!<BR/>I love the insight and wisdom got has given you to bless others with.<BR/><BR/>Strange that I wrote on Lelia's blog about praying for someone to impact my daughter and son's lives for Christ. I look at your profile and you are in the very city that my daughter and her husband moved from!<BR/><BR/>They are regretting it. He was in technology as well....I guess..he does something with computers. He was with Fidelity there (sort of outside Raliegh) and they moved to San Diego. They want to come back east.<BR/><BR/>Maybe they will come back near you and your church.<BR/><BR/>Can't wait for the study and all the fellowship and sharing what GOD is placing on our hearts!<BR/>Love and prayers,<BR/>TeriTeriAnnElizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15834866295066332351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7477331004844382467.post-42818127743175842652008-09-10T18:39:00.000-04:002008-09-10T18:39:00.000-04:00"Realizing that the glow of His closeness during t..."Realizing that the glow of His closeness during that journey is what makes the view so completely glorious and wonderful."

The song, "Cloud of Witnesses" by Mark Shultz moves me to tears each time I hear it. Those babies see our faith, and they too become witnesses. His plan is so awesome!<BR/><BR/>Love you!<BR/>SusanRunner Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117856929394961713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7477331004844382467.post-75217600123726466912008-09-10T09:22:00.000-04:002008-09-10T09:22:00.000-04:00Hi, Mari!

I know what you mean about working in children's ministry too...it's hard work, but oh, so satisfying. You are making such a difference in those young lives.<BR/>See you next week for the last chapter!Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08263995875732832349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7477331004844382467.post-67472921988777827342008-09-09T19:51:00.000-04:002008-09-09T19:51:00.000-04:00Shannon and I taught kindergarten Sunday school fo...Shannon and I taught kindergarten Sunday school for a year at our church, and it is definitely not a glory filled position at first glance.<BR/><BR/>Shannon had a particularly hard time with a certain little boy each Sunday....especially during the Bible story time, which is what Shannon was in charge of each week. Anyway, every Sunday, this little boy caused some sort of disruption during story time....And this one Sunday in particular, he really acted up. (He was a very sweet boy, but he just had such a difficult little childhood...His grandmother had to take over raising him and his siblings). So that Sunday when the grandmother came to pick him up, Shannon was just emotionally worn out from dealing with him, but the little boy ran to greet his grandmother and dragged her over to Shannon and said in his little 5 year old voice, "Mr. Shannon is who teaches me about Jesus."<BR/><BR/>Sigh......<BR/><BR/>That was when Shannon first realized that it was definitely a glory filled job, amen?:)<BR/><BR/>God Bless,<BR/>Amy:)Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05336144938479561819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7477331004844382467.post-5136231516990286112008-09-09T19:10:00.000-04:002008-09-09T19:10:00.000-04:00Yes, what wonderful chapters and we are living the...Yes, what wonderful chapters and we are living them aren't me? It continues to amaze me to see this all unfold in my life. And yes it is a journey and I'm grateful you reminded me of the prize. What a reward for simply making ourselves available and being obedient.

I love what you said here about the ministry God has you in:<BR/>There is nothing like seeing the girls I had in small group almost 6 years ago, become God-fearing, God-loving pre-teens.<BR/><BR/>That's awesome and THAT'S what living life on purpose is all about!<BR/>Thanks for the prayers. Wish we were sitting in the lobby of the hotel again in NC chattin' about our girls! ;) I'll never forget "33" when you shared that with me.<BR/>love ya,<BR/>LeliaLelia Chealeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13173827811277833243noreply@blogger.com
