It's a God thing!

God gave me a little adventure yesterday morning. I dropped the boys at school a little before 8am and stopped into the counseling office to check in on boys weekly reports. As I was leaving that office and entered the hallway, I felt such a burden for the school and the students. Everywhere I looked, it looked bad. I kinda wandered down the hallway and towards the front door beginning to pray for the school and asking the Lord for guidance. I looked into the front office and Leanne, the secretary, was standing at the front desk. I went in and told her I had Thursdays off work and was wondering what I could do to help the school, but not sure what that "help" was. She smiled at me and asked if I was familiar with 'Moms In Touch.' I wasn't so she went on and explained that they met weekly, thought it was Thursday, and gave me the leader's name and phone number. I asked if I could call before leaving there, just in case they met early morning. So...
I spent the next two hours praying and visiting with two other moms at Ruth Anne Dean's home in south Albany. It was a wonderful prayer time and I knew I was in God's will. Also, the two women were so happy and said I was answered prayer. They had been praying for more moms to join their group. It was a God Thing, for sure.
I will be researching the web link for Moms In Touch International. They used to have a Lebanon group, but that has disappeared, but would like to start one again. It is great for moms wanting to intercede for children and schools. It is an opportunity to do something so worthwhile. Thank you Lord.
Hope your week has been a good one; I'm looking forward to this weekend. See you Sunday, sweet sisters.

Hey there,
We went out with Dave and Leanne last night and heard all about your blog. This is going to be a great thing for you ladies. What a neat way to stay connected.

A good friend of mine is the reginal coordinator for Mom's in Touch and she has been trying to get somethng started in the Lebanon area for quite a while. I have tried to help her in the past to make some contacts in this area but nothing has really worked out with anyone. I know that she would be thrilled to talk to anyone that would be interested. Just let me know.

Well, gotta go. I'm looking forward to hearing more from some of you in the future.
