I always have.  We are down a few kids tonight.  The house seems too quiet!<\/p>\n<p>Max is at a friend&#8217;s and Tyler is doing the 30 HOUR FAMINE!  Yes&#8230; the grade 7s are experiencing lack of food for 30 hours, while having a big sleep over at school! <\/p>\n<p>What a trooper!  It really is hard to imagine the lack of food and water for so many people in the world while we have a ridiculous abundance.<\/p>\n<p>I made a campfire and hung out with Jordan and Zach and the pups.  What a gorgeous night.  I love the smell of a campfire.  I love smelling it in my babies hair.<\/p>\n<p>Oh&#8230; let me tell you about my God sighting today.  It is a silly story but was very real to me.  Sammy&#8217;s class was in Cobourg (about 45 minutes away) for a baseball game with a bunch of other 8th graders from other schools.  <\/p>\n<p>He was suppose to be there for 8:30 am&#8230; we missed the bus&#8230; (LONG STORY).<\/p>\n<p>So I driving to the game and had trouble finding exactly where we were suppose to be going.  After an hour of driving around, not finding the place, I said that if they were not at the next spot, we would have to head home.<\/p>\n<p>No team&#8230; so I am looking for my way to the highway.  Sammy is really disappointed and trying to be OK about it.  I prayed&#8230; &#8220;God please help me.&#8221;  I was on a street in the middle of no where.  On the right side we see lots of cars, some school buses and a ball diamond.  This isn&#8217;t oen of the spots I was suppose to look.  I said, &#8220;Sammy don&#8217;t think this is it&#8230;&#8221;  SO off he goes to see if there were any familiar faces.<\/p>\n<p>I  see a smile!  WOW!  This really could only be a God thing.  It was a small thing yet a huge thing.  I needed a God sighting.<\/p>\n<p>While I listen to my non-believing friends justify things, it is easy to see where FAITH really comes in play.  I am so glad that I  have Someone to believe in and have Someone I can yell to.  What a great GPS!  <\/p>\n<p>You can choose to believe or not.  I find believing a lot easier.  I find that when I seek His presence I am always reassured in ways that make sense to me.<\/p>\n<p>He comes down to my level.  This is my God sighting.  I needed it today.  SO&#8230; thank you God.  You know it all and I am so grateful for Your constant presence.  I am always grateful for Your understanding my moments of doubt.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s Friday night.  I am so glad that each week has a beginning and an end.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s Friday night&#8230; I love Friday nights. I always have.
