Sunday Service

I sent the previous post to Arnie yesterday and havent heard anything from him. I wonder if he cares. Well, the spirit led me to deliver that message - I hope he receives it.

Last night I was thinking more about death. I am so ready to leave this earth and be with my Heavenly Father... but each day I live, I know my journey is not over yet. I still have work to do - for others and myself. I have to work on bettering myself so that I can be a true blessing to others. In service today, I was elated to see that some of the things I do are being validated through my pastor. This was the best service I've been to in a while. I really felt connected. I am so motivated.

I spent some time with a good friend of mine that I had grown distant from the last few months. He is doing so well! I am so happy he is in my life. I was recently thinking that there was no one in my life to serve as encouragement in my daily battle. He is definitely one. When we first met, he cursed all the time, was very promiscuous and did not feel church was necessary. I tried encourage him to stop cursing and go to church with me. He finally did one day and he admitted that it was not what he thought it would be. Since then, he has met a woman that he loves, goes to church, does not curse and is practicing celibacy! That is awesome!! I am so glad to have been a part of that journey. I hope he continues - his blessings have already begun to pour out! To see where he was and what he is now... it really is amazing. I get teary eyed every time I think on it. He's beautiful. I definitely need to keep him in my life!

Well, that's pretty much it. I had a successful Sunday! I look forward to putting to practice what I have learned...
