Wow thank you for sharing this. I think that so many moments of my life I get into the "poor me" routine and the "I am already scraping by routine", that I don't allow God to move and that sucks. Maybe not nessasarily with money, but with my heart and attitude and with what I refuse to surrender back to Him. I absolutely want my whole life to reflect His glory and I always seem to get in the way of it. Why do I do that? .-= kristiapplesauce´s last blog ..Trash =-.

@Michael, God's timing is pretty amazing. Truth is I was just getting ready to walk into that bar myself (just kidding). Praying for you and so proud of you for trusting God during this time. .-= Pete Wilson´s last blog ..Bellevue Camus Update =-.

to add a little to the last post, trusting in this mission empowered me to step up to the plate today and pledge my commitment to the mission. Thank you for your letter Christina,

p.s. previous post correction, trail and error, lol, life is a trail but its trial and error.

Well I have been wanting to write this for a while now. I have always believed that things happen for a reason. Now I know why they do. A christain by birth I have never stepped up to the plate and embraced the the effects of what it means to let go and trust in Jesus. I can’t even believe I am writing this, somehow I feel like a hypocrite writing this. There is a plan and it is different for everyone, and this is KEY, if you open your eyes and learn usually by trail and error or life if you will true happiness will hit you in the face, and you will be free!! There are many examples I can give, I will offer this experience as proof. I was unhappy in my job, I went to the bar after being laid-off, terminated, with no real reason given I went to the closest bar and ordered the strongest tallest drink they had. My body was numb from the carnage just released on me by my boss. I cared about my job I was helping people everyday, however I was not in the right place, I knew it and so did he. I walked outside contemplating calling my girlfriend and telling her the news. I did and went back inside and had another. I asked why, to myself walked outside looked up to the sky, and when I looked down again I saw Pete walking down the street, he looked at me and I at him and I walked towards him, we met and I told him what happened I was ashamed for drinking and didn’t want him to know, like he didn’t…we talked until I was ready to go. I felt so much better and so emotional that I cried just a little that is. Well that doesn’t happen just by coincidence does it. I have never even seen Pete out before. I mean what a light shined on me, a flock of birds flew over when I walked back to my car looking up at the sky I prayed thanking God for everything he does for me. Open your eyes, learn to recognize, this takes your own life experience and I hope it comes sooner than later. I never thanked you Pete, thank you, and thank you God for putting him there for me.

I think I've read this 4 (probably more) times already. It's had me thinking for most of the day. Thanks for posting this Pete. I've been needing to think & pray about this lately & you've just given me the extra push I needed. .-= Sarah´s last blog ..Fried-day =-.

I have to share this with you all…

For the first time in a while – I’ve landed a new client!!! Not totally confirmed yet – but was asked today at a networking opp to provide a consultation – a route in our business my team has been praying for and about for a year now.

Right after that, at the end of the lunch, a former client approached me saying “I need your help – bad!” She’s working to get approval to hire us once again.

This, along with a very large proposal out – whether these work out or not – God is SHOWING HIMSELF to my team and I – that HE IS here and will provide for us!

My husband and I were feeling the SAME THING that morning. Wanting to get out of good size debt, knowing that his company will not give raises this year, so that they don’t have to lay off anyone (Love his company!!)But we have seen God move in unbelievably miraculous ways in the past few months and refuse to go back to comfortable faith in His power now! It was a dang good message He gave through you guys that morning! And we changed our commitment 4 times, because we were just not stepping “into the Jordon”. WE are definitely there now and SO EXCITED to see Him push back the “impossible” waters. Thanks for the push God!
