God is SO good!

Where do I begin?! God has been SO good to me! Let me tell you some of the reasons why!
This past Monday night a couple from the church in Sante Fe, NM took us to dinner-which was wonderful; but that is not what the most exciting event of the evening was! After dinner, we came back to the prophets chamber and as we were opening the door, I could see a shopping bag inside the entry way. As I looked at it further, I realized it was a Coach shopping bag; I was like, “no way!” We hurried into the prophet’s chamber and attached to the bag was a card with my name on it….I quickly opened the bag and there was my very own Coach bag! I was so excited-I never thought I would ever own a Coach bag! I don’t know who gave it to me; but I am so thankful and blessed that I, of all people, would be given such an awesome gift! You know a Coach bag, is the ultimate purse to own and I have quite the purse fetish! I think I will probably carry my Coach bag forever! And, whoever picked out my Coach bag has excellent taste, because it is just my style-I have been bragging about my Coach bag all week! God is so good to me!
Another reason, why God is so good to me? Well, I have wanted to visit Steamboat Springs, Colorado for a very long time; but it is so expensive-it’s a tourist town and ski area. However, a very special friend of mine is paying for Joseph and me to stay in Steamboat Springs for one night, so on Monday night Joseph and I will be in Steamboat Springs-I can’t wait! God is so good-He really does want to bless His children with the desires of their heart and I am proof of that. God keeps giving me my desires-even those desires that probably seem so small in the eyes of others!
This past week we have been in Englewood, Colorado for a home missions conference. We weren’t able to present our burden for Norway; but we were able to meet many prospective Pastors who may be able to schedule us for a meeting. While in Englewood, they put us up at Silver State Bible Camp free of charge-we were very appreciative of the free accommodations. My only complaint-I hate driving up mountains, I feel like I could fall off the mountain at any time. Every time, we drive on the mountain, I beg Joseph to drive under the speed limit as much as he can and I don’t really care if we cause a traffic jam-I just don’t want to fall off that mountain! It was also great to reunite with friends from college at the conference and see them serving the Lord in the ministry He has called them to!
After leaving the Home Missions Conference we traveled down to Colorado Springs, Colorado for the night! We are currently in Colorado Springs and enjoying our time! There is so many free things to do here, like Garden of the Gods and the Olympic Training Complex!
On Saturday, we go to Walsenburg, CO for a Sunday meeting! Pray for the Lord’s will to be done in that meeting. Speaking of which, we have not heard about whether or not the church in Sante Fe has decided to take us on for support-so, please keep praying!
