Blessings in Waiting

So Masha is back home, praise God. I was sweating all the small stuff and realized all that she does in blessing me each week. Laundry, cooking, cleaning and above all this encouragment. When I had returned from picking her up we had talked about finances and the slow process of looking for employment. Then deciding to pick up more hours doing in home care our schedules become confused and transportation gets tricky. Then a small letter comes in the mail. This surprise blesses Masha and I and pays a bill that was going to have to be put off. My father offers to pick up Masha and drop her off on some days. This is God's grace living through others. Now I wait in God for His work in the leaders of the youth center to which I have applied a few months ago. Maybe this is God's way of refining a brother.
Service also brings blessing. I was asked to share at a youth retreat held in Southern Lancaster Co. it was very inspirational and I was blessed to spend it with my wife and a great group of teens who I know felt God's love and presence. It was also a blessng to recieve a monetary gift for the weekend, as well as free room and board.

So these are the blessings in waiting that those who remain faithful to the service of God may recieve and may He continue to refine His servants until he calls us home.
