It's the 4th of July! I couldn't help but be reminded of how my life had changed in the last 2 years. It used to be my busiest time of the year. When I was in the retail world, this was our biggest holiday and I had no time to enjoy it. Today was a different story.
I slept in, then went to the parade. I saw so many of my youth participating and was so proud to see them in so many positive things in the community.
Then, I came home and spent the rest of the day with my husband watching episodes of our new favorite show. Basically, we enjoyed just being together.
During the afternoon, I also found out what I will be doing on my mission trip next week. I am now even more excited than I was before! I get to spend the week leading youth to run a day camp! I get to help teens find ways to share God with kids! I can't think of a better way to spend a mission week!
I guess I am just overwhelmed today with how God has worked in my life to get me to where I am today. Looking at my past and my present makes me realize how much He has blessed me and how He has always taken care of me.
So, where was God today? He was with me enjoying the day-just as He has been with me every other day. And, He found a way to give me the gift of working with youth and kids next week for Him.
Blessings,
Jennifer
