People

O.K. Rita I'm posting

It's been crazy over the last few weeks. Lots of kids at school, not enough sleep etc.

I am so grateful to God for changes in my life. I look back to when I got out of high school and remember who I thought I would become. I also knew what type of people who would be in my life. I am so glad I was wrong. I used to judge people because they didn't act, think or look like me. Boy was I wrong. When we started going to the Vineyard many moons ago, I realized that people who didn't act, think or look like me were really cool. I assumed by the way they look that there was no way that they could be Christians. Again I was wrong. Some of these people are some of the coolest people I know. They love God and they love those around them. After going to the Vineyard for a while we then went downtown to help plant the vineyard there and that was a very rewarding time in my life. I continued to meet people who I would not have chosen in the past to hang out with. I believe that these people probally love God and are more spiritual than the ones I would have chosen. I have learned many things from these people. I have learn true community. I have learned to be me reguardless of how I feel. If I feel like crap then I am free to tell them and not hind behind a fake smile. I am free to live life. I am free to love God with all I have have.
