Its so simple

I didn't want to work this week at Sonny's. I couldn't get a hold of my boss in time or catch him at a good time. I figured God had something planned for this week and the people I have been pouring into.

I was right. God loves these co-workers. He loves each detail in there life. He has called me to love them and to listen to them. By being willing, ready, and bold to follow Jesus, he has done some really great things in the Sonny's employees. Its so amazing to see.

"God, continue to work in each persons heart. Make them aware of your eagerness for them, your voice in their life."

How I love being a Jesus follower! Its so exciting. So full of love. grace.

"Lord, please continue to let people see Christ in me, Christ in my eyes, Your love for that person."
-speaking of that, every week so far, many times a week, people compliment my eyes. They see something is different. I am not afraid to declare that its all because of Christ, that I have changed. The glaze on my eyes is gone! The sadness is gone! A spark is in my eyes, and Oh Boy, its for YOU Jesus.

this is when I feel its every bit worth it. A light to the world. How I loveeeeee it.

Christ in me, the hope of glory!

this isn't Norway

but this is part of the reason I like the South so much.


Biscuits.

This is what I told my Norwegian friend about them (bad grammer and corniness ahead): "Just they are sooooo good. They make me happy. Literally. Happy. When there is a biscuit I get this warm feeling of happiness inside me. All of the memories with family. Knowing its going to just be soft and warm on the inside! Its great with any kinda dinner. So good!"

I am lame. Dear South: I will miss you and your uniqueness.

Leave one week from today. :)
