~Cinnamin Toast Crunch makes for a tasty snack. Selah and the Isaacs make for some good listening, and sing-along music. I'm glad to be home. :)
~Just wrapped up a 20.55 hour work week at Panera Bread. Larry and Sandy, a dear couple who are regulars at work, don't know how I'm making it. I tell them that it is by God's strength and His alone. One of my work buddies asked me to pray for his girlfriend who got beat up by her ex. My manager apologizes for his cursing. Another regular Pete, says I'm such a good girl that he can't help but tip me. (I think the bag of goodies I give him help too. lol.) I tell him that I'm only a good girl because I serve a good God. Another guy invites me to go out and smoke with them or just bring food out and be with them. I politely decline. My mind thinks of the verse in Matthew: "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in Heaven" (5:16 KJV). Now, I'm not sharing all this to boast. I'm just humbled that God is using me to be a light in a very dark world. I'm even more determined to represent Him well and to do all for His glory.
~I'm so thankful that I serve a God who hears my prayers. I was so blessed on Sunday as Mr. Wolf and the choral ensemble sang that song with the band.
Yes I know He hears my prayer, and He knows my every care. Jesus gives, gives to me, victory blessed victory. Praise the Lord, I feel Him now. Loyalty I to Him vow. Yes I know, Savior hears, I know He hears my prayer.

Thanks for sharing! Keep shinning your light. I thought about you guys in band on Sunday. Would have liked to be there with you all.
I was encouraged by your post. Thanks! It's sometimes so easy to forget that being a light doesn't mean we have to illuminate the whole world at once, just steadily around us. I enjoyed this post Dearie! ;-D
