No matter what Trust God!!

So this past week has been crazy busy with volunteering at VBS & I just have not had time to think about what I should blog about. I feel bad I have missed 3 weeks of Teamwork Tuesday but I hopefully will be back on track next Tuesday! This whole week we have been learning different phrases & to trust God in everything. Monday night I was completely exhausted & crying cause honestly my auction for Celine was going slow. Don't get me wrong I love supporting families adopting but it seems harder to fundraise for the orphans I love without over exhausting the same people or auctions seemingly are going better for the families which I understand why. I have my moments of not trusting God & then trusting him yet again but then things happen & I learn to trust. As I was bawling my eyes out frustrated that mainly Celines auction was not going as well as I thought & frustrated about my "kids" not finding families & about Celines region the voices in my head kept repeating what I had been hearing at VBS Trust God.
Day 1 was No Matter who you are... Trust God!
Day 2 was No Matter how you feel... Trust God!
Day 3 was No Matter what people do... Trust God!
Day 4 (today's 6/28) is No Matter what happens... Trust God!
The who you are, what people do (think), & what happens is especially hard for me to Trust God about so I think VBS has definitely helped this year! Why I wanted to post this is in the good times & bad times please remember to trust God! But you know what the prayers & trusting God works, it may not be my timing but it is his! The auction has picked up speed & is doing well! Even if I only raised $5 I know it helped Celine! I am also excited cause I think I will be able to do our neighborhood garage sale to fundraise! I was so upset I could not do one sooner on my own but you know what? I think it will work out better this way so I can get everything ready & go through more stuff we need to get rid of! The week/weekend before is JBF Sacramento & as long as my nephew cooks in his mommies tummy til around his due date of October 11th then I plan on doing BOTH. Yes I know I AM CRAZY TO DO BOTH BACK TO BACK fundraising but HECK I SAID I WOULD DO ANYTHING TO HELP CELINE & EITHER FIND HER FAMILY BY CHRISTMAS AND/OR GET HER FULLY FUNDED SO ITS ON! I will be possibly doing a local family like last years but since I only get a day instead of 2 weekends I don't have as much flexibilty on where funds should go but you know what I will decide it closer to time on how to split funds. I am hopefully going to do lemonade & drinks to fundraise for Brandi since I have not gotten to do much for her. JBF will likely be just Celine or just Cora Lynne I really don't know how to divide my fundraising evenly but you know what I try. Anyway things are going good! I applogize for not checking in more often for those readers I know are there  reading & truly enjoy reading my blog. I'm glad to know I can Trust God no matter what!

  1. We did the same VBS lesson!! It was a good refresher for even the adults. Its so easy to forget God is in control & so comforting when we remember all we have to do is "Trust God!"
