"Incompleteness is not the result of being single, but of not being full of Jesus."

I have yet to hear about the application I turned in for a Unit Secretary position in the Labor & Delivery Unit at Methodist Childrens Hospital. However, I fully expect to within the next week!

God continues to move, and I love seeing it! A couple months ago I randomly decided to go look around in the Family Christian Store. I happened to walk past the shelf labeled "Singles", and a certain book caught my eye. The name of the book is "Lady In Waiting: Becoming God's Best While Waiting For Mr. Right". It came complete with a journal, and study guide as well. I ended up buying it that day. After I had read about 2 chapters of the book, I started telling a friend about it. It was such a great book, and held so many truths! I just really felt that this was something a lot of us young women need, and how awesome would it be to learn, share, and discuss these things with a group of other young women who are in the same boat as me?

Last week, we had our first meeting session and it was just an introduction, hang out time. We got to know each other a little better, and each of us made a journal to use during the course of the study. The first night, there were 9 of us in attendance.

Last night, we had our second meeting and we began going over chapter 1 entitled "Lady of Reckless Abandonment". There were just 5 of us there, but the discussion was awesome!! I think we all left feeling really great about this study and where it's going to lead.

If any of you know me very well, you know I hate being a leader/teacher, and I really really hate speaking in front of groups of people. As pumped as I was about this study, the closer the day came, the more terrified I became, and the more doubts filled my head. I don't think there's any reason that I was able to do this, and had the desire to at all, other than God. Yep, just another "God thing". I know He is going to do amazing things through this group and I am so excited to see it and be a part of it.

If you think of it, please remember this group of young women in your prayers.
