We Find Ourselves When We Serve Others

Today the kids went back to school and I went to work on the DVD for the Riverton Baseball team. Last night I wanted to begin but my kids came over with the grand baby and they wanted to swim. I spent the night just enjoying them, but in the back of my mind loomed the fact that I needed to get the DVD done.

I really hoped and prayed that I would not be flaring today because of all I did yesterday. I knew that the team banquet is tomorrow night and I still had a great deal to do to complete the DVD. I trusted in the Lord and prayed for help that I would feel good enough to complete it and that my computer would work properly and not give me problems like the last one I made did.

I spent the entire day on it, trying to not worrying about anything else today. I tried to save every spoon I had in order to finish it by the team banquet.  But life happens and things need your help that you were not planning on. My oldest daughter needed help with the grand baby because the swim lessons began today. My extended family also needed my help, which I was thankful for the opportunity to help them. It was amazing to be able to be there for the people I truly love and cherish in my life.

Once I was done helping everyone else I knew I needed to put my trust in my Father in Heaven and everything would work out and I would be able to finish the DVD by tomorrow.

I stayed up until 11:30  and almost had it completed. It was the slideshow for the seniors. It was pictures and videos of them when they were playing ball as little boys until now. It was so fun to highlight these 7 boys. J'Dee has played with 5 of them for the past 10 years.  It was such a fun video to put together for these boys. Making this video helped me to focus on all the great memories we have had over the years and not on the fact that my little boy J'Dee is all grown up and will  graduating next week

I felt so blessed today that because I took the time to help and serve my family today the Lord gave me the strength I needed to complete what needed to get done.
