40 days of community

is over but I think this is just the beginning. It has been an interesting 40 days. An exciting 40 days, and a sometimes scary 40 days. During this 40 days I for the first time have actually prayed for God to use me and fully and truthfully mean it. Before I wanted used only in certain ways and at certain times. This group of ladies in BJ's Buddies is quite an awesome group. I have developed some really neat relationships with these ladies and look forward to sharing this journey with them.
Tomorrow is Praisefest where the entire area of every denomination gather for an evening of praise. I am looking forward to this as it is always an awesome experience.
It has been a difficult week in some ways, lots of good stuff but also dealing with some people who are just being nasty. I was able to just shrug it off and even pray for them. After all being that unhappy can not be too pleasant for them. My baby, Brian was told today that he has a job in Columbus and headed up to Lisa's tonight as he has orientation all day tomorrow. I pray that people at this job will assist him on his spiritual journey. Lisa is excited about him staying with her but I figure for them to not get on each other's nerves, Brian will need to work a few evenings. :)
Karen called me today because Antonio wanted to call me. He was telling me about his new haircut. His voice saying "Grandma Anita" just makes me smile all over. I am so blessed.
I am reading "Searching for God knows what" Just getting started but it a great book.
