Don's Job

Yesterday we found out that Don was asked to come in for a interview with Shelor Motors. They have already interviewed him once on the phone. So hopefully this is a good sign that he may have a job soon. Please pray for him on Monday at 1:30. That is the time of his appointment.

We had dinner with Gary and Berkeley; the couple from Lynchburg on thursday. They live in a little town called Pilot. It is about 20 minutes from the area we are staying, but it feels like a million miles away. It is so beautiful there. Funny thing- Don and Gary were out front of their house and a lady rode by on a horse. They said hi and talked to her and found out she was from Los Angeles. She had recently moved to Pilot and gotten married to a man from the area. It is a small world!

Gary and Berkeley are very excited about the new church. It is so fun to talk to them. They have been going to a church that has had students from Liberty University going to it. So they are well aware of the needs of the college student. We also met a woman at the vet yesterday. Lucy was under the weather and we had to take her in. She and her husband are looking for a church and she said she liked what we told her about Calvary.

Life is so much slower here. I am feeling the change. I am trying to remind myself why I am here and the need to use this time for drawing nearer to the Lord. Don't we always say we'd just love to have some time to just sit at His feet and listen o His voice. Then when we get it- we want something to keep us busy. I do have a need to spend time with Him, besides the obvious; I have been asked to speak at a Calvary Chapel in New Jersey for their women's Christmas gathering. I have had something on my heart that I think will be great for a Christmas message. So pray the Lord will guide me to what He wants me to teach.

Time to go. The Hokies won today. VT's football team. The road will be congested and the city will be full of joy. How much more do we have to celebrate our Lord.
