Breath of Fresh Air

Has it really been almost 2 weeks since I posted last? Crazy how time is flying this year!! We haven't really been busy these past 2 week.... just going about our daily routine which includes: going to work, coming home, eating dinner, playing with Cooper, watching TV, going to bed. But, yesterday I did something out of the routine. Yesterday I received an email from the Sunday School teacher at First Baptist Pflugerville. She said some of the girls from the class were going to meet up for coffee in downtown Pflugerville and wanted me to join so I could get to know the ppl in the class. So I went..... and it was awesome! It ended up being just me, the teacher Kelly Reagan, and a girl we had met before, Tiffany. The three of as sat and visited for over an hour about our lives and our desires for the class. It was incredible how Kelly just reaffirmed Tim and my feelings about God calling us to minister to this class. Tim and I joined the Newly/Nearly Married class at BBC about a year and a half ago when there were only a few couples. None of us really talked to each other or did anything together outside of the class. Today however you can't keep that class quiet! We have developed eternal bonds with these people and they have become our closest friends. When Tim and I visited FBP (First Baptist Pflugerville) there were only 4 ppl in the Sunday School class; me, Tim, the teacher Mark (his wife Kelly was sick that day), and Tiffany. As we left the church that day all I could think about was what an awesome ministry opportunity this would be! We have seen a class go from being very similar to this one to growing in size, closeness, and spiritual maturity. What a chance for God to take what we have learned from Pat and Annie and all of our dear friends at BBC, and use us to bring that to FBP!! I wanted to cry as I listened to Kelly talk last night about her desires for the class.... I wanted to cry when Tiffany said she was longing for Christian friendship here in Pflugerville. These two women were echoing the cries of my heart! I felt a peace driving home last night that I hadn't felt in a long time. For several months now I had been wondering if we had made the right decision in moving to Pflugerville, and last night I knew that we had. I knew that God had led us here for a reason, and watching His plan start to unfold is amazing!
