Last weekend I had the amazing opportunity to join our church for the Women's Trip to the Sight and Sound Theater in Lancaster , PA. This trip was a gift from God from the minute I entered that bus!
First I have to tell you about the horrible day I had before that almost kept me from enjoying this trip! Everything that could go wrong did that Friday. My three year old was abnormally hyper. My kitchen window had been leaking for two days at that time. My back door then decided it wanted to let a river of melted snow into the kitchen and the icing on the cake was getting a ridiculously large (and wrong) electric bill. By that evening I was so torn I truly thought that going on this trip would be another disaster...the devil was wrong!
I decided to collect whatever strength I had left and got myself up that morning. I ended up sitting on the bus next to a lifelong friend that I hadn't talked to in years and reconnected with her during the ride!
First we did some shopping at the local outlets then went to eat at an awesome buffet.
I was in awe when we finally arrived at the Sight and Sound Theater and was definitely not disappointed when we saw the play of Moses. I laughed but mainly I cried during the show. It amazes me how God chooses the moments we least expect it to speak to our lives. While I saw Moses struggle with the thought of unworthiness when God sent him to give the people His message, I was reminded that God doesn't care about your disabilities or short comings. God chooses us for a reason and even if we don't understand why it is important that we stay obedient to God. God used Moses even with his stutter! Nothing can get in the way of GOD using you! No stutter, no disability! This play gave me faith that God can use me just as he used Moses. That even though I may feel unworthy God can still use me to save lives!
Even though I am the newest member of the New Beginning Pentecostal Church, I feel like part of the family! These women are my sisters in Christ and I cannot wait to enjoy some more things to come!
