I've come...yes at last, but not for the reasons you all hoped. I have come to bid you farewell. I no longer find inspiration among the pages of Xanga and have moved on to things that better fit my lifestyle. I am not deleting my page, for who knows when the inspiration will return. If you have come to find me, I am not here. Follow my footprints to Facebook and there you will find me. Until my muse resurfaces....I bid you farewell.

Once again, here I am. A lowly servant of the Most High going about my daily business when He chooses to surpirse me with His grace and an outpouring of His love. I guess I had better start near the beginning of the story for it to make sense...

I was out helping a friend of mine (Dawn) move from one apartment to another today. When I was talking to her she said that she has been starved for some spiritual nourishment over the last two weeks and was really looking for a place to get some this evening. Dawn then told me this story...She had been eating lunch at Applebees so that she could have table space (since she doesn't yet have a table and all of her counters are covered in boxes) when she thought she overheard the people at the table behind her talking about a Bible Study. When she asked them if they were they, "Lady, we're drinking beer, do you think we're talking about a Bible study?" Well, she had misunderstood but the two pregnant black ladies at the table across the way overheard her conversation and told her about a Bible study that was meeting Monday nights at 6:30.

There Dawn was, starving in her spirit for some nourishment, and God (knowing what she needed) placed this opportunity in her lap. When she told me about the study I was skeptical, but sensed that we should go anyway. Once we reached the church I had this sense that God was at work. AND boy was He! As soon as got inside we were met by the study leader, Avery, on whom you could almost see the Spirit of God radiating from his every pore! We also met a few others at the study whom we had an instant connection with, and I have to say that I have never felt more at home so fast in any other body of believers!

Thanks Zion Canaanan Baptist Church for practicing the presence of God and being an effective part of His Body! I just love how God's Spirit unites believers and brings us together in the most unassuming ways! Praise be to Most High for all He has done and will do through the relationships kindled tonight!
