A Wonderful Visit

I am amazed at how the Lord works, how He blesses us when we aren't even looking for a blessing. Yesterday I shared at Nashannock Community Church in New Castle, PA. The last time I was there was 10 or 11 years ago. It was exciting to visit with the now young adults I've written to for so many years. Several of them are getting married in the next couple years!! After a beautiful time of praise and worship and a little visiting before Sunday School, a couple took me to a Chinese buffet. What an added blessing in that we were joined by two of their sons and several of their grandchildren and their friends. I was able to meet Amy Lynn's fiancee, Aaron and chat with Jamie about Jim. I'm so glad they are desiring to serve the Lord in whatever way He calls them to. I also had a blast visiting with Trish, another one of the grand kids. She is a riot...there is no lack of adventure in her! It was also a blessing to stop and see Kayleen, a friend from college days. She just got a puppy so there was added adventure watching Kayleen and her mom and dad take care of the four-legged toddler! Besides the great day visiting with long-lost-friends, God's hand of protection was on me as I drove through a terrible blizzard. All of us driving were pretty spread out and basically bouncing from left-lane vibrator strips to right-lane strips. It was terrible! I thought about stopping, but was afraid to pull off the road. I was worried a car would slam into me! Thankfully I was able to pull into the driveway at 10pm...and no harm at come to me or my vehicle. Thank you, Jesus!
