As my daily devotion time, I'm going to write, instead of read someone else's, daily miracles. My hope is, that by doing this, I will enrich my journey and awareness of God in the little things in my life and also encourage others to do the same. I encourage you to share your comments and stories of things that you encounter along your journey.
Blessings,
Jennifer

Relationships

Day 4 of my conference-the last day.  It's with both sadness and joy that I am in the last moments of this long weekend.   The conference was amazing!   The speakers, the workshops,  the experiences, the worship.   But, I am also ready to be home.  I love my life-my family, my job, and all of my kids who I missed.    I am also anxious to take some time and focus on the things I learned and figure out how to apply them .  I have some new ideas and tools I want to try!  And, a full night of sleep sounds like a great thing to try.  
But, what was even bigger than the ideas was the relationships that were made or strengthened during this time with other youth workers, with family, and with God.   I had the blessing of leaving every night and staying with family.  I was welcomed, encouraged, and even spoiled.  Today when the conference was over I went to visit with more family.rather than traveling when I was tired from the busyness of the conference, i got to spend time relaxing, sharing my excitement of the weekend and going to my nephews soccer game.  It was just what I needed.
So where was God today?   I realize I am blessed in so many ways by so many people.  And the beauty of those relationships can only be of God.
Blessings,
Jennifer
