Sunday

So, in trying to jumpstart myself into blogging more regularly I have joined up with  a few others for a 30 day challenge. Todays word is "Sunday". Imagine that.

Here goes...

Sunday 
The day of the week that we assemble ourselves together within the four walls of the building we call Church. For me, that means trying to get the kids all ready and out the door in time to be at music practice by 4pm with a quick stop through Starbucks.  
Small confession...even if Im running late, Starbucks is not skipped. 
I'm usually spilling out of the van, five kids and two Starbucks in hand, 
rushing in...and lucky not to spill on myself. 
Sometimes it gets pretty hectic 
and sometimes there are tears 
and sometimes by the time I get there, 
I feel like I am running on empty. 
Thank God that He meets us there!
  As a Pastor's wife I look forward to seeing new faces come through the doors and am so happy to see God move in their lives and begin a work in their hearts. 
I know from experience that He is a heart-healer. 
He is a way-maker. He is a provider and a friend. 
Its almost like having a Dr. Appt scheduled all week...with the Great Physician. 
I love to meet with Him on any day, 
but there is something extra special about those Sunday Appointments. 
We sing, 
we laugh, 
we cry, 
we worship, 
we fellowship, 
we grow, 
we are refreshed, 
we are planted, 
we are sometimes dug-up and re-planted, 
we are renewed and revived, 
we are strengthened.  
It is bound to happen on a Sunday. I am thankful that my Life revolves around these weekly meetings in His house with His people. 
My days are full and long, but He is always there on Sunday to fill me back up with His Grace.
