The Blessing of Encouragement

As most of you know, I have been on vacation this week with my amazing family.  It was such a joy for us to all be together without interruption for a few days.  Well, today we traveled home and arrived about 7 pm tonight.  I unloaded the suburban while Laura vaccummed it out.  After about an hour of getting settled, I decided to make a trip to the office to get a few things done since I have 7 meetings tomorrow beginning early and ending late. 

When I arrived, I began checking messages and working through the piles of stuff that was left for me to do while I was away.  As I was going through things, I was so blessed to receive one of the most special and encouraging notes from one of our quiet and humble senior adults.  As I read the note, I began to cry and was filled with such emotion. 

At that moment, I knew why God kept prompting me to go on in to the office tonight to get a jump start on my busy week.  God wanted me to begin my work week with this amazing blessing of encouragement.  WOW! What an awesome God we serve.

Now, I can not wait to pass on the blessing as I plan to write a note to someone tomorrow hoping to bless them as I was blessed tonight.

Thank you JESUS!
