After my devotional time yesterday and writing the blog entry, I called my prayer warrior and went to see her. She is 92 years old and still vibrant in character and her walk with God. I was able to share with her regarding those needing extra prayer in our counseling sessions and my own personal needs. As we concluded the time I embraced her and told her she was the mom God gifted me with who can not only hear the concerns of my heart, but will guide me and model Godly living. I longed to have these conversations in my younger years with my own mom, but dad would always interfere wanting a male visitor to be only with him. Those days are gone, but the present days are gifts God provides and I thank Him for them.

Tonight we will be kicking off the start of our 17th year for Celebrate Recovery. How I love and thank God for this ministry. My own life has changed dramatically due to God’s use of it and I’ve witnessed scores of individuals who now walk a confident walk with God. What a privilege and honor this all is.

GOD IS SO GOOD!
