BREAKTHROUGH...That was my word for my Sunday School class this past week. We are occasionally asked for one word for the rest of the class to pray for us and that was my word. Obviously, God and I knew what I meant by that request as it pertained to relationships and bonding within our home and tonight it happened. I am so amazed by His love for us and I want to make sure to give Him the glory for these answers to prayer. I said I was going to read some of Tozer's book and Savannah thought I was saying something about toes...I guess you had to be there. Needless to say there was a lot of laughter and I ended up doing a bunch of pedicures instead of reading Tozer. We needed the laughter and God knew it! Toenails and Tozer will have a special relationship in my mind now that we had such fun and a really great conversation tonight.
In other news...McKenna was selected 1st alternate for her school's spelling bee. At the time, she was devastated that she did not make the cut to ensure her spot in the bee...OK, that makes me wonder why it is called a bee...that seems strange and something to be googled. I am sure that will make sense later. She was feeling guilty that she was hoping someone else would drop out or be sick that day. However, once she received the list of words she needed to study to be ready for the spelling bee, she is now praying that everyone will be in good health and she will not be called upon to spell. We have been studying all the words, writing them out three times each, and looking them up to see what they all mean and how to pronounce each one...they are incredibly difficult. I have this secret (well, not so secret now, right?) wish that someone will miss out....not that they will be sick, though...maybe that they will be on a trip to Disney World or something that day and Kenna will have to spell and somehow all this work we are doing will pay off and the 1st alternate will take the whole bee!
Enjoy 2013! God has great plans for you...get ready for His breakthroughs in your life!
