Thanks for Sharing!

People have been sharing the neatest things with me! Thank you so much!

As you might know, every year the highlight of my job at the mission is processing the summer intern applications. I especially find it such a priviledge to hear the stories of the applicants' life journeys and what motivates them to apply for an intern position with us. Well, because I ended up missing some of the process these last few weeks, an envelope of motivations for ministry got dropped off at our house the other day and I was blessed by reading them!

And then yesterday I got something completely different- a set of jokes from our English Conversation group. Every week we each share a joke. sometimes they're really funny and other times it's so funny because they're not funny or we don't get them, and trying to explain them is funny, so regardless, we have lots of fun with them.

Just for the record, about an hour ago I suddenly felt such a clearing of the fog in my brain! so in case you were praying...Thank you!

And then today Suzanne brought me Helen's "Soul Weavings "- A Gathering of Women's Prayers. In case you are into something big or small right now, here's one for you:

"Living Christ, I'm in over my head. This situation is getting beyond me.
Take over; take over all the way. Fill this room, this place, and all of us who are in it with your empowered presence. I give all of this to you. I thank you that you are here and that your light and love are enfolding us at this very moment. In your name, in your word, in your power. Amen
