What a Day!

Yesterday was a blast. I had written how nervous I was, but after being with these women, I can't think for a minute why I would have been so nervous. Morning Glories has the best omlets I have ever tasted; I had a Greek one with creamed spinach, olives and feta cheese. Yummy. I want one now.... I wonder if they deliver ..... mmmmm

It was amazing to be a part of something so terrific. We laughed, talked, shared. It was great.

It was a testiment to the dedication, commmitment, determination and faith that C3 has to offer. It is a testiment to the obedience of God's will, not the leadership's own. I mean, get this; after this past Sunday's Discover C3 class where 46 people showed, 41 of them became members. Yo, that right there is a testiment to God's blessings.

I've never in my life been a part of a church where the leadership has done what it said it was going to do. I think if more people actually paid attention to that, rather then their own ideas and agendas, they'd see it, too. But, God does blind some individuals from reality ya know, ...remember Pharoh and King Saul?

Then again, C3 isn't for everyone. If you grew up in church, honey, this ain't your grandparent's church, and for others, this ain't jo mama'a church either.

You may come to C3 and think we are all lunatics. But, hey, that's ok. We are reaching people in the community. And besides, there's a boat load of other churches out there; just don't pick one out of convenience, pick it because God led you there. You'll know.

I did.
And I am so thankful for what God is doing at C3.

I used to feel more comfortable with my drinking buddies at "Players" and "Wing Shack" than I did with people at church. When I started going to church (before we became C3) I would stay far away for the people I used to hang out with. Why? Well, that's a whole nother blog, baby.

Now, I'd be comfortable doing both and not feel one bit of shame or guilt. Ya know why? Because, I am a living, breathing testiment to what the Lord can do. I drank, smoked, slept around, took drugs, struggled with an eating disorder; and look what God did with my life. And he ain't even done yet!

I'm overjoyed that people like me are welcome at C3.

It is living proof of a leadership following the will of God - not their own.
