Crossroads.

To Christina and Elijah,

May we always meet at crossroads.

Airport thoughts..

Written on the back of my ticket on the flight back from Vancouver....

If following Christ is my life.. how could it not be one of the first things people know about me?
I am a daughter, a sister, a friend, an employee.. but first and foremost I am a child of God.
How much more important is my faith than anything, anything else?
Nothing but Jesus defines who I am.

God in the workplace.

An excellent article that caught my attention this morning.

Base the significance of your work not on what you do on the job, but on how you do it.

Striving to shine God's light and represent Him in the place where I am the most.

Take my hand by Shawn Mcdonald

Take my hand to the promise land
And on You I want to stand
‘Cause I cannot do it on my own
You're what I need and I need to be Right by Your side
‘cause I cannot hide
Lord, I know that I need You

Without You I'm so alone
I am weak but You are strong
You pick me up when I'm falling down
And I am crying
Out to You
inside of my heart
I need You, Lord, oh so, for the part I
want You to have my life, Jesus
Take my hand to the promise land
And on You I want to stand
‘Cause I cannot do it on my own
You're what I need
and I need to be Right by Your side
‘cause I cannot hide Lord,
I know that I need You ( I need you)

I fall to my knees
And I'm begging You, please, oh, Lord
Won't You change me
Make me new from the inside out
I want to shout out Your name
Take my hand to the promise land
And on You I want to stand
‘Cause I cannot do it on my own
You're what I need
and I need to be Right by Your side
‘cause I cannot hide Lord,
I know that I need You

I need you
I need you
I need you
I need you

Thoughts.

Try to see people through the eyes of Jesus.

Respect

Dear friend,
I have had it on my heart to write you a letter...to share my thoughts with you. You see, I am presently doing a bible study on Esther.. and well, I got stuck on the first question. Now.. if I want to move on with the rest of this study, I better get this off my heart.
The question was "Think of someone you respect." So for the past week.. I have been dwelling on that one question. I have to share this with you..

I respect you and I feel it is important that you know why. I also feel the need to blog it because so many people could learn from the virtues you portray day in and day out.

Friend..
Your love for Jesus is a beautiful thing to see. Each and every time you have prayed in my presence it has brought me to tears. I feel your love through your words.

Your commitment to living in His image is something we should all strive for.

I honestly can say I have never seen so much compassion in a person. I know you sometimes wonder if you are compassionate to your own detriment... in this world maybe.. but you are not of the world remember?.. God will never let you down.

I know you battle just like the rest of us, but I have immense respect for you because I know that you lay your battles, your anxieties, decisions before God.

To see someone put their life in God's hands is a great inspiration to me.
I thank you for that. I thank God for putting you in my life.


My friend... I wish you nothing but blessings and keep you in my prayers always.

4594

What an adventure these past few years have been. 2 years ago, out of the blue, I received a phone call at work from my present employer with an opportunity I could not pass up. Little did I know at that time what a journey I was about to embark on!
After going from branch to branch for the first six months, again by 'fluke', I landed at 4594 - which for the past year and half has become 'home'.

Looking back, all of these 'flukes' were simply God putting all the pieces together.
Looking back, so many people associated to 4594, from management, coworkers, and even clients have all played a part in this story that has yet to fully unfold.
Looking back, that office at the far corner of the branch has seen it's fair share of my tears, my worries, my anger and my growth.

I am amazed at how much I have seen, learnt and experienced at that branch. Amazed at how God knew that was where I should be. Amazed that my team was able to see me go through transformation and thankful that I had the opportunity to share the impact God has had on my life with them. God's workings and plans are greater than we could ever imagine. It is simply unbeleivable to see how everything was planned, how everything just 'fit'.

This team will always have a special place in my heart. Lord, for each and every one of them, I pray.

Lord, I thank you for 4594. I thank you for it all.

As I embark on a new journey, always on the same path, I leave with the comfort of knowing that you are right there with me.
