Waiting

It seems like I have been waiting for fall to arrive all year. First, I love the fall and all that comes with it: camping, kids back in school, crisp mornings, and of course our two biggest events FAITH PROMISE CELEBRATION AND RUN TO THE LIGHTS. Why are these events so important? They literally help us grow in leaps and bounds by providing the financial resources it takes to reach more moms and enlist more Caring Women. A lot of people ask what is a Faith Promise? It's simply relying on God for what you cannot see...well, that's my version but it involves a period of WAITING and TRUSTING. As a former Single Mom, I spent a lot of my time waiting....waiting on my kids at the dentist office, waiting on my finances to get better so I could relax, waiting on summer so I could spend quality time with the kids, and waiting on school to start back so I could rest! So...here I am days away from Faith Promise and I am reminded to wait more....AUGH! I feel like Charlie Brown in the pumpkin patch waiting on the Great Pumpkin. Take a deep breath and relax, waiting's not that bad and there's always a blessing on the end of it!
