The Airplane

I just have to share about my last trip.  I just really sometimes feel like the luckiest person in the world, or maybe I just recognize when my Father romances me with HIS love.  We recently went to Miami on a free trip earned through a company we promote for, and of course we traveled via airplane.  Airplanes can be somewhat crowded and small and well you know, it takes all kinds right?  As my hubby ALWAYS has to have to window seat, it usually leaves me sitting next to a stranger.  This can also be good and maybe not so good.  This trip I was delighted to sit next to a gentleman whom was not only friendly but loved the Lord.  We has a lovely visit.  I feel kinda weird describing it as lovely but if I had to chose an adjective to describe it, Lovely is the most accurate. Our next flight I was seated next to a wonderful older woman whom mostly kept to herself but visited with me occasionally.  She was so nice and I can just image her in her youth as very spunky!  Our trip home didn't grant me such luck on the first leg as I was seated next to a gentleman that not only did he not speak english (actually he probably did but chose to converse with his family in his own language), he never once glanced my way as he hogged the arm rest and then fell asleep with his mouth wide open and snored so loud I had to put on headphones so I didn't have to listen and become ill!! Actually that too was a blessing in disguise because when I complained to my husband, he offered up his headphones and turned on some music and as we sat there on the flight, we shared the headphones and danced in our seats together.  I was however glad when that flight was over and I just prayed the next person I sat with on the next flight would be better.  So thankful that my prayers were answered and I was graced by this amazing young woman from New York whom I took an instant kinship too!!  We talked the whole flight home.  She was the around the same age as my oldest boys and the conversation flowed easy.  As I sit back and reflect today on who God placed next to me on the plane, I can't help but feel blessed, favored, lucky and romanced by these wonderful people I got to meet.  The joy the three of them brought me reminds me of just how awesome God is and how lovely we all are made in HIS image.

WOW

Ever had one of those experiences where all you can say is WOW?  LOVE IT when that happens!!  We just had an amazing weekend of WOW and I'm so glad to be home.  Our excitement grows and builds almost daily with the Visalus company and The 90 Day Challenge!!!  We are so thankful that someone cared enough about us to put before us this life changing opportunity.  Funny, I've of course heard stories about people who were in the right place at the right time and their life changed.  I know for certain and am so thankful that the Lord positioned us to be right where we needed to be when we needed to be there and brought this to us.  It's not a fluke or happenstance, it's a straight up calling and blessing in our life!  It is so much bigger than us and the vision that drives this company is huge!!  It is making us grow as servants, givers, leaders and doers.  I love the fact that they've kept it so simple, yet there is not a single thing about it that is ordinary or standard.  The design behind the vision of the company blows my mind yet it's pure simplicity that drives the engine.  We are on a mission to help as many people as we can regain their life, health and prosperity back, and in doing so we get ours!!  Hold on folks, we just got started!!
