God Stop Friday

Well it's Friday again. This week has flown by and I only have a few minutes before I have to head out the door.

1. We were concerned about Kendall's birth certificate for her passport. We never got hers because the forms were destroyed in our house fire and we just never got around to getting new ones. We were getting nervous about the time it would take to get it and then the time to get the passport. Well God worked it out for us and we have her birth cert.

2. I teach pre-k and there is a little girl in my class that has never been away from her mom. She started just a few months ago and instead of getting used to things and doing better she has been having a harder time each day. I am not kidding when I say she cried for 5 hours straight. I don't mean sniffels and tears I mean sobbing, screaming, moaning, and gnashing of teeth. Okay maybe I was kidding about the teeth. I prayed for her on Thursday in the parking lot before I went in. We also do a morning devotional with all the staff where we take turns doing the devotion. It was my assistant teachers turn and she has just been re-baptized and really been reborn. She has never prayed in public and has always asked someone else to close in prayer for her. She finished her devotion, took prayer requests, and then said God told her she had to pray today. She prayed the most amazing prayer that made me cry(not only for the word she spoke but because I know how nervous she is about that and for her boldness for Christ in her prayer). She also prayed for a calmness and comfort for this little girl. The little girl came in crying as usual and was very upset. After about 20 minutes she just looked at me and said "I guess my prayer didn't work and then just laughed. Within 10 minutes the little girl was fine and playing and smiling and laughing. Every other teacher that came by my room could not believe in the change in this child. I told my assistant that next time she feels God's urgency to pray to throw in a money tree for me.
