Every week there is samples of this amazing bread!!! It's from Great Harvest Bread Company. The owner is sooo sooo sweet. She always is passing out samples to my kids and just oozing with sweetness. All their cookies and breads are delicious. Anyways tonight was different. The kids have been sooo incredibly good this week with structure and listening ect... but i've had the feeling of I suck am i doing this right ect... Well we walked away from the table to go to our car and the lady came chasing me down. She said i just wanted to let you know your sweet and gentle spirit is so hard to find. You seem like a great momma with well behaved respectful children. She continued to hand me a loaf of this Cinnamon Concoction called Bread and say i just want to bless you for you being you. It took everything in me not to cry. For me it had nothing to do with the bread it was the fact that my obedience to GOd to train My children resulted in a light to this women. A light that she said was usually hard to find. Thank you Jesus for letting my children shine and for allowing me to be apart of turning that switch on in them!<br /><br />By the way the bread company is located on Perry Road in Grand Blanc!

I felt God had showed me this during my morning devotion time. I just thought it might help someone else here as well.

During my devotion time i read about Jochebed (Moses mother).</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">So often we focus on Moses and his bringing the children of Isreal into the promise land we forget to look and see where he came from ?</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Moses mother had to have the "faith" to put her three month old baby in a basket and allow God to be his protection. Wouldn't you know that her remarkable faith brought her a return of not only being able to raise her own baby and nurse him for three years but also to get payed from Pharaoh himself ? Crazy right.

The theme of my necklace will have Beauty from Ashes on it to represent how the Lord can pull you out of grieving and turn your mourning into praise and your life will be rebuilt and YOU will be able to reach out to many generations! <br /><br />Stay tuned!Rachael.http://www.blogger.com/profile/02964566526506441028noreply@blogger.com0
