Sunday again
wow it has been a crazy busy weekend again! NO KIDDING!
Larry and Jeannie have been here since Thursday and it has been so fun to reconnect with them and to get to know them better. They are sooo funny!!!
This weekend has been nothing like the conference weekends, but has managed to fill itself up none the less. There is always something to do around here eh?
I am LOVING what I see God doing in me right now though. Last May (2003?!?!) I started reading 10 chapters in the Bible a day. As I have said many times, that has transformed my life! Now as I am able, I try to do 20... not always successful, but I try. That has continued to impact my heart in a significant way. The last three weeks the Lord is taking me deeper still. I am "required" to spend 24 hours a week in the prayer room, and at first that was a daunting task. It is becoming my joy.
My "spot on the wall" is between 1:30 and 6:30 Monday to Friday -- give or take a half hour on some days. I know that is when and where I am exppected to be found before the LORD. The discipline alone is transforming my life. I find I am more focused, more aware of my time, more alive in my Spirit, and definitely more eager to be in the Prayer Room. We say here alot that all leadership needs to lead from a place of prayer... that our headquarters needs to be the prayer room. I knew that when I moved here, but it was never my prayer room... it was IHOP's and I was a visitor, and observer of the great thing happening around me. It's different now.
Did I mention i LOVE that?
Anyway, I had my coffee (Tim's of course) out on the deck this morning as I watched the morning light hit the sky... without a jacket! Fall in Kansas City makes me happy! I'll be hitting Manitoba cold soon enough!
off to teach the children! Have a great day. (Keep praying for a new mother board for my computer... using the office ones are no fun!)
