Prayer Request

I am such a blessed woman with great sons, great boss and a rewarding position in life. I teach and assist seniors in learning to navigate the computer and internet. This is the path God has laid out for me and I have never regretted a day of helping someone. I don't receive a normal salary, rather a stipend that helps that care of gas, food and incidentals I may need. I thank God for giving me the patience to excel in such a position. Not a day goes by that someone doesn't say "thank you" and it's amazing to see the happy expressions on so many faces wh en they learn something new. Right now as I type this, I am in a dilemma about something, but I just can't focus on the negative (which I see as exalting a problem). I'd much rather exalt God and give Him thanks for all things - good and bad. After all, whose report am I to believe: He who makes it clear that he comes to steal, kill and destroy. Or, he who says, I came that you might have life and have it more abundantly? I made my choice who to believe today. My learner today said something very special to me that meant so much. I told she and her husband that God had put them in my path and she responded "No, God put you in our path." And, the husband asked about my son serving in military and said "I went home and prayed for him!" The rewards are always more valuable when you can leave knowing a difference has been made in the life of another - whether your life or their life or both.
