- Let me first preface this by saying I am a blonde. When I was in South Dakota to graduate, I met with the Chancellor of the school to go over some last minute details. As we talked, he asked me if I knew why I didn't have to pay the fee most graduates do. I didn't quite understand what he was talking about, but as I sat down on Monday to do my banking statement, I realized Great Plains never cashed my check. It took me over a week to figure out the impact of that conversation we had in the chancellor's office. So there's an extra $60.00 I thought was gone out the window!
- Last Thursday night, I was over at my brother's house helping him with all the wedding plans. Before I left, he handed me $100.00 to celebrate my graduation. It was unexpected, but very appreciated!
- There is a missionary family from Mexico at my church right now. The wife came into the office yesterday so I introduced myself to her and she asked me if I was the Anne that went to Thailand. When I said yes, she replied, "We were praying for you!" Isn't that such a blessing? To think that a missionary I've never met before (face to face) was praying for me while I was in Thailand last year was just incredible. It made me stop and think how many other people (such as yourselves) really are praying for me!
I read in Jeremiah 2:6 last night these words:
"Neither said they, Where is the LORD that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, that led us through the wilderness, through a land of deserts and of pits, through a land of drought, and of the shadow of death, through a land that no man passed through, and where no man dwelt?"
I can say that very same thing. The Lord has brought me: 1 - out of the land of Egypt, 2 - led me through the wilderness, 3 - through a land of deserts and pits, 4 - through a land of drought, and of the shadow of death, 5 - through a land that no man passed through and will continue to lead me!
Each step I take, through all sorts of terrain, the Lord is leading me along!
