Day Four. . .

Today was a busy day but another good day. I woke up early and was blessed with the sight of the sun cascading across the field in the back of our house. Some of the trees and bushes have begun their slow change towards winter and the sky in the early morning was a crisp blue. I spent the first moments of the morning in prayer and praise before God, it started a wonderful day four.

Today I thank God and my parents for sending me to OBC. It was at OBC that I was able to find God again. At first I wanted nothing to do with God but opening up His word and studying His word filled me with such joy that I couldn't stay away from God. I found my spirit continuously seeking God and as a result I also became painfully aware of how far from God I had traveled. OBC showed me that I needed God and I needed healing and started the journey back.

So as I look at 1990 I look at OBC and the blessing that it was for me, I thank my parents for sending me and mostly I thank Jesus for putting me there and seeking me out there in order to bring me home.

What is amusing about today is that an old friend from OBC contacted us and wanted to pop in for a visit. So I said(uncharacteristically) sure drop in I'll make dinner. Well this was stepping far out of my comfort zone but we managed just fine, I made a lovely chicken casserole and we had a lovely visit. Yes I am making progress even in unexpected ways.

So I let go of 1989 and 1990 as the OBC years thanking God for this provision for me during those years and I move forward as the celebration continues.
