"Go God!!!"

I attended a Ladies Holiday Banquet tonight with my coworkers. It was held at Old Town Baptist Church - the church of one of the gals. After an amazing dinner and dessert, served to us by the men of the church; we listened to a truly wonderful speaker, Merrie Johnson. All I can say is "WOW!".

Merrie's motto: "Go God!". She has experienced much heartache in her life, yet finds ways to teach others that God was there with her every step of the way and answered each prayer she had. Every time a prayer has been answered she raises her hands and chants "Go God! Go God! Go God!" because she KNOWS that God is in control! She explained that there is always a reason for HOPE, no matter how difficult things may seem.

H - Hold on! In his time things do come

O - Remain Optimistic that things will work out

P - Pray, pray, pray, and pray some more

E - Expect good things from God!!

How true this is! Moving to North Carolina was something Mike and I prayed about for a long time.... a LONG LONG time!! . We waited patiently for His timing and we knew when that time came. It felt so right! We remained very optimistic about what was to come once we got here and remained hopeful of what was to come. Every step of the way we prayed about it and look how good God has been to us!! "Go God!!"

I am so very blessed to have such a wonderful group of therapists to work with!! We are not only a great team, we are great friends who enjoy each other both at work, and at home and tonight was true proof of that!
