Tonight I found out that the Mt Health Owls had a game about 5 minutes fom my house. This is very rare so I took it opon myself to make sure thatI attended the game. I got there around 5 and the freshman game hadn't ended yet. I got to see the freshman play while I tried to meet some of the varsity guys unsuccessfully. Its all good though because they only brought one bus so everyone had to stay and watch the JV and then the Varsity. This was great for me because it gave me an opportunity to sit with the freshman team and hang out. I met some really cool kids that just love to have fun no matter what. They got whooped in their game, but all they could talk about was all the fun they had messing with the other team. I remember 4 names and lots of faces. This will give me plenty of stuff to pray for. Also at the game I saw someone I knew. It was a lady from my subdivision growing up. I had known her as a child because she was one of the people you would always see at the pool or playing with her kids or whatever. Well as it turns out she recognized me and came to talk to me. When she asked me why I was there and I came back with the whole youth ministry thing she was overwhelmed. It was awesome to see the joy light up her face. Turns out swhe is a very devote Christian woman. She offered me anything that I could think of be it transportation, financial support, or dinner. She told me that she wanted to talk to me more and find out exactly what I was up too and that I should stop by her house some time to talk with her. Tonight was truely blessed. She also told me that her husband is looking for people to train int his chemistry oriented job at HIS plant. Basically the guy wants to hire me on this summer to work for him ppaying me huge dollars to do something I love and am not bad at. I was so excited on the way home I was shaking. God has a way of never letting me down. This is awesome. Despite how wonderful everything is there is still the roughness of my family and the 4 exams I have in the next 7 days...why is it that none of that stuff seems to be all that hard to face knowing that the God of the universe is beside me. So in the spirit of Eclessiastes 5:2, I'll let my words be few and peace out for tonight. I hope this message finds your well and joyfully filled with Christ.
in Him
