God is Good

So, being the first week on the job at my internship, I am very excited that the end of the week has come. It has been a very busy and productive week, working for my dad at his car dealership. I have made many runs to target, office max, best buy and so forth. The first thing this little dealership needs is some serious organization, which some of you may know I have a sortof OCD relationship with. So I went straight to work. I have found good use of the 30-40-some-up to an hour long drive to talk to God about my friends and family and what's going on in my life. I have spent the car ride on the way to work (in my demo, which is a pretty cool bonus) praying for the day ahead of me. Just want to take this opportunity to thank the Lord for answering one particular prayer this morning. So I was thinking, pretty sure that we haven't sold a car all week, last week, dad sold 5 or so. So I said, God, I pray that we would sell at least one car today. In the car world, it's pretty tough to sell cars when it's raining cats and dogs and arms and legs.... but today we officially sold one car and delivered two cars, with one more in the works when I left for the day. God is so good. Plus, I miss Louis like crazy and I get to see him tomorrow, which makes me smile SSSSSSOOOOOOOO big and get pretty jazzed about that. Anyways, I suppose that's it. Feel free to post prayer requests, cuz I'd love to be praying for you.
In Him,
Kate

You're not alone...

We received a little book of bedtime prayers to read to our little guy when we were pregnant, and one of the prayers is titled, "You're never, ever alone." It is a little cheesy and even rhymes, but it teaches that no matter what, no matter where, God is with you. It is so basic, but it's a reminder that I've needed a lot, and so have many of my friends. In the last several months, God has brought me conversations with other women, where God has used me to assure them that they are not alone in various circumstances. One friend was dealing with family and friends who kept telling her "how small" she was in her pregnancy, and some family members even told her to her face that they didn't think she could accomplish a natural childbirth as she desired (for those who did not get comments about being "so small," it often made me feel as though people thought I wasn't eating enough or doing pregnancy well, which this momma was feeling too)....

Campus Crusade Update

As the school year is up and running and staff and students are finding their grooves, we continue to wait on the Lord. We have found the last year of raising support to be the source of a lot of growth for us. God has been teaching us so much and helping us to understand that He is in control, which means we don’t have to be. And we can’t be. That has been a very challenging lesson to learn. That being said, we would like to let you know where we are at in raising support and what our situation is at the time. We are currently in a place of great difficulty in making consistent progress on a weekly and monthly basis. Due to the economy, among other factors, we are not raising support at a level with which is projecting a reasonable finish date. Our support coach has helped us to look at our progress objectively, and in the last several months, despite hundreds of phone calls every month, we are having a hard time connecting with people. Taking all of that into con...

Don't Worry About the Small Stuff

.... And most of it is small stuff. Lately I've been thinking about how much other people have the potential to either make you smile or get under your skin. I've recently encountered several situations in which I had been struggling to not let other people completely ruin my experience with something or my attitude about things. Through a lot of processing, I realized that I was trying to micro-manage and control other people's responses, thoughts, actions and words in my own strange way. I was giving them the power to dictate whether or not I enjoy myself and enjoy life. How strange of me! Then I realized that a lot of people tend to do that (although usually subconsciously) and end up being so frustrated by everyone else's junk or bad attitudes that they themselves become junk-carrying crabby people. So I figured, hey, I have enough stuff to carry around on my own. Why on earth would I try to also figure out your issues? (unless of course you ask for help) Plus, ...
