  1. Waking up to another fantastic surprise! Sometimes you pray for something so crazy, so insane, and out-of-this-world that you don’t think it would ever happen, and then IT HAPPENS!!! And not only did it happen, but it happened last week and again today! Reminds me that God can do absolutely anything, even miracles! In fact, He’s great at performing miracles and completely saving us from situations that seem hopeless.

  3. The wonderful relationships with my brothers and sisters in Christ that God has built and mended over the past 20 months! God wants all of His children to get along well with each other and love one another, just like how we want our own children to get along with each other and love one another, sometimes we need help from God our Father to do the mending.
