Tuesday at 5pm I got a call to say it had turned up and I could come collect it anytime. I honestly think the woman who rang me got a surprise at my enthusiastic response. It really doesn't look like much, two small charms on a chain, but one as I said is special and the other is from our time in Pennsylvania in Amish country, so I guess also special to me.So now I have my bracelet back on my arm and can feel the weight of "my little china bug" again. Wonderful!
One of the e-lists I subscribe to consists of many people of faith. They are always calling for prayer for children, or families, always thanking God for His love and His powerful way of moving. Some of the stories they tell are so amazing they can ONLY be God driven. I find this list to be such a blessing in my life; even something as simple as a reply to someone else's message saying "God is great" is enough to remind me that..He is!! To these unknown e-friends, thank you for your support for each other and your continual outpouring of God's love.
Totally off China topics: In this week before Easter, I discovered the following video. A church in (I think) Texas got together and performed a "flash mob" dance to a song that won't go out of my head. At the end of the performance, all 2000 church members stepped out of their brand new shoes and left them for the needy. Being the church in the community... I love this. Being God in the community and showing His love in a way that touches people? Truly awesome in every sense of the word. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have, and are inspired to "Dance your shoes off". The obvious joy on these faces inspires me. If I wasn't so physically unco-ordinated (I keep using the wrong left foot) I'd be in something like this in a blink.
