2 Beautiful Church Experiences in One Day...

It was a small crowd today at my Chapel Service at the Centre (small crowd is my way of saying me and two other people!) Regardless, I heard something that I'm going to ponder for a time.

In discussing life at the shelter with over 200 other women & their children, my friend (a young mother of 2 children in her 28th week of pregnancy) said this:

"Around here, I try to stay focused on where I'm going and what I'm doing and also to have patience. There can be so much drama with all these women, but drama brings confusion, and when you're confused you're blind and you can't see where you're at or where you're going and then you're stuck."

Wow...sounds a lot like how to have victory over a scheme of the enemy.

On a different note, Rob had the kids re-enact the parable of the Good Samaritan - I only caught the last bit on film, it's too bad, because the kids really got into the part where the traveler is waylaid in the 'cut', his money gets stolen and has the tar beaten out of him...
