Thanking God last week for:
- Getting to connect with Angelica again - she's really fantastic! I love spending time with her.
- Some direction on what to teach at my new small group. We're going to focus on the basics - back to our identity in Christ. For those TLIers who are reading this, guess what book we're going to read? Abba's Child by Brennan Manning!
- Still having a job - last week, we closed two of our offices and laid off about 15 additional people (seven in my office alone). I'm not sure why I still have a job when so many don't (including my boss but I'm very thankful. When I prayed about it earlier last week, I really felt like the Lord said that He had a plan for me here and wasn't done with me at DW yet.
- New opportunities at work. I'd be lying if I said that I didn't have a little "survivor's remorse" that I still get to have my job when so many are losing theirs. But, I'm also excited for the opportunities that these vacancies will afford me.
- A nice, low-key weekend in the midst of lots of church retreats! (I'm in the middle of a season where I have retreats four of five weekends). CRAZY yet fun! But, I sure needed this laid back weekend!
- The kindness of a friend to pay for my going on one of the retreats as I just can't afford - but need to be at - all these retreats.
- The Lord's kind provision
- The Lord's persistence to bring me freedom with my finances
