Last night was my debut as one of the Women's Bible study leaders. It was awesome, I thouroughly enjoyed myself. I have such a passion for being an encourager of His word. I find so much liberation in it and always walk away comforted and strengthened. I was very surprised that I was not nervous at all as I stood in front of all of the women. I now am looking forward to becoming more comfortable and relaxed when I am speaking. I was thrown off each time someone would respond to my lesson. I am anxious to conquer the "where do I go from here" thoughts and "I wonder what they are thinking about" and "she doesn't look like she is enjoying herself at all"!  I found myself studying them the whole night.  I also want to beable to express my enthusiasm better but it was my first time.

I bought an issue of the Old Schoolhouse Magazine today and am so anxious to open it up. I was very excited when I saw Susan Wise Bauer and Bluedorn inside! Can't wait to dig in.

I have to share what my 5 year old Superman said to me tonight as I tucked him into bed. It was such a perfect example of Childlike faith. He just came down with what sounds like a pretty bad cough and sore throat.  We had to go shopping today for a gift for a girl at church who is having a birthday party tomarrow night. My little Superman was so excited. So later on in the evening we realized that he probably wasn't going to beable to go because of his increasing cough. He was sad about it and so we told him we would pray for him. Daddy prayed for him while we all layed our hands on him. So as I was tucking him in his bed he said " Are you worried about me mama?" I said " Yes, I am sweety." "Why?" Me, "well, because you are sick." Which he responds confidently "I won't be sick tomorrow"  "Why not?" He says "Well because Daddy prayed for me and so I am going to get better and will beable to go the party."   I smiled so big and my heart was just warmed and I thought...........childlike faith........how wonderful! Oh I pray that God would heal him tonight and I pray that I would have a faith like my little Superman.

God bless.........I am off to read my OS magazine!
