Sunday Thoughts and Bad News Is Good News

Thoughts From A Great Sunday

Today was one of those days at Church when the

messages were incredible.

Andria, Cindy, and Bruce R. spoke.

Every message was powerful.

Here is a thought from Cindy...

Don't just pray for people's well-being,

safety, etc....

Pray to know how you can help them.

She was referring to praying for members of her family, yet

this applies across the board...

It made me realize I need to pray for others in a different way

and at a deeper level.

If I am praying for them, am I willing to also be part of the

solution?

This thought also made me think about those who will

be affected adversely by the approaching storms.

I need to pray for their safety and well-being, yet pray

to know how I can help them.
How will I be able to help in the aftermath and be part

of the solution?

My young daughters put it in perspective for me last night.

They said, "A storm is bad for others, but good for us because

we get to help them. When can we make quilts?"

They remember the sweet spirit surrounding the quilt

service projects in the past.

They also said....

"If we had a Hurricane and lost everything in our house, we know

that other people would make quilts for us."

Do you look at things this way?

Bad News Can Mean Good News...

Hearing the attitudes of my children was so humbling.
