One of my friends at church spoke one Sunday morning. She started her talk with "If you really want to know what God wants for you, make plans that you want to do." That may not be the direct words but you get the idea. I had my plans for today--they had been made for about a month and included a very pretty day with nine grandchildren dressed and in a good mood. The photographer was coming to take pictures for a portrait that was LONG overdue [a post in itself!]. We woke up early and Ed told me it was raining! Not a good day. I was not in a good mood and had just a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach all day. I talked with the photographer's office several times trying to cancel. Each time they said, "Oh, no, everything's going to be fine. We'll adjust. It will work." Oh, ME of little faith!! :) I told Jennifer and Tiffany that God was testing me. He had His plan for my day and I should just go with it. It was raining and cold but the children were great and I know that the pictures the photographer took are much better than mine. Here's a sample of what I took.
Everything turned out fine. God took care of the day-His way. I can't wait to see what the pictures look like. We have a special place just waiting for the portrait! I feel sure that Jennifer and Tiffany will post something they took too. Check it out and get their version of the story!
