Keep on Keeping on!

Soooo, today was the "big meeting." It turned out to be a big nothing! It was more like we need to contact someone else to help us out because this was not their "specialty." Of course there was words of encouragement passed on to us as well as a prayer for our good efforts, but I felt as though we left with a pat on the back and a "tsk, tsk" as we hung our heads and walked down the hall. But, I have to say that it is such a comfort to have a friend like Michelle who kept her good spirits about her! She did such a great job talking in the meeting, I was so proud! Kind words spoken at a timely moment are like honey, they cheer you up and give you strength (Proverbs 16:24) and that was what Michelle was for me today. It seems so sweet for the Lord to give us both the chance to encourage the other and it always is His perfect timing! I was telling my dear husband it is like taking steps, and when I need a push to keep going she does that, and when she needs a push I do that for her. If we continue in this manner we will eventually make it to our goal, and know that both of us helped each other get there. What a sweet, precious kind of friendship. We all need to encourage each other better. Our Lord is so good. He is good all the time! Tomorrow is another day, I am looking forward to His fresh new promises every day!
