God is always at work in our ordinary, every day lives,
but SOMETIMES... He makes himself just a
wee bit easier to spot.

I've had quite a few times like that lately,
and for my own purpose of encouragement
when loving on the Kolfe boys gets rough...
I thought it wise to record some of this week's spottings.
Last week, I was feeling a little down. There is so much to be done for His kingdom, and honestly, I was weary. There are people who have closed their eyes and ears to this vision, and can be intentionally, or unintentionally unkind and discouraging. Thursday was filled with a lot of tears... but as Psalm 30:5 says, "Joy comes in the morning." and it DID.

Friday morning, a pastor of a small local church called. He wanted to hear my story. He wanted to encourage me, he wanted to pray for this trip, and my part in it. I am humbled, and sooo grateful that God brought joy to replace the tears.
Monday night at a Homeschool Mom's Night out.... someone new asked me how many kids I had, I responded with my usual, ♥ ♥ "Five." ♥ ♥ ♥ God spoke, and she caught the vision.... Yesterday, I ran into her at a field trip... she gave ME this. I gave HER... a BIG hug through lots of tears. It's enough money to buy the entire orphanage fruit... again! Thank you, Jesus!!
