Well, the water was perfect this morning for an early morning snorkel. It was so calm and clear and I am just praising God for my blessings while underwater (which to many of you this may seem funny)....seeing one of my favorite large purple fish. You know what I am about to say don't you.....yep...four feet away swimming by me is another large sting ray! Here I go with my Nemo song again....just keep swimming, swimming. I began thinking of our small group last night as we were talking about fear and faith. I must admit I am afraid of sting rays and yet I keep getting to encounter them...what is that about. I think the enemy will use anything to interrupt our praise of the Savior.....things we are afraid of or maybe just distractions like not being with your family on Thanksgiving. OUCH...that one really hurt me. Praise is such a matter of the heart. I will praise Him in spite of my circumstances, because of my circumstances and through my circumstances. I realized sitting around in small group last night that God has blessed me beyond measure with Godly women here in Mexico. Lighthouse church is full of them and I am blessed beyond measure. Sooooo.....let's give a little shout out of praise to God today!
