Ask and you shall receive!

This Sunday we got to go to church with Romana and her kids. We also took Victoria and John. At Beacon House they have a reward system for behavior and school conduct. When they get 12 smiles, they get to go to church with Romana and then out to lunch...so this was a BIG treat for Victoria and John. (for me to...being OUT with the kids makes me feel more like a mom, becasue they are my responsibility)
During worship I was thanking God for how much HE has protected and gone before us this far...and how amazed my heart is that He has already finished the process I have yet to walk.
The church had air conditioning. ( HIP HIP HOORAY) I was resting in the worship and the AC and as I praised I prayed for physical strength, (after being sick I have just had to PULL myself each day a bit) and just thought "with out complaining Lord, I just need a bit of a small break" Holy Spirit says "you have not beacause you ask not" so I asked...."Can I have a small break from the heat?"

So...after chruch Romana had a friend who was having a B-day and we all got to go. The great part was that a baby that was just picked up right before I arrived in Ghana is being fostered in this house. The house had AC, in the whole house, a swimming pool, clean water to drink and ICE CREAM with fresh chilled fruit to eat.
Hummmmm, I think I will ask more often!

God YOU meet me right where I am! I got to hold that baby, PRAY over him, sit in the cool house with the fellowship of women who are taking care of orphans and have ICE CREAM! I was so filled up and refreshed....I did not notice that John and Vicotria had eaten two bowls of ice cream and were on their way back for 3rds. I guess we all needed a treat that day!
