Define need

The weekend was busy. I don't really mind busy as long as I have the time to recoup. Friday night we had a children ministry meeting. I enjoy our meetings mainly because there is usually lots of laughing. We have a great team. Very creative and lots of fun. God has put together a unique team. We really do have everything we need. We have people who are gifted at leading worship, building relationships with kids, characters in skits, taking a theme or message and really laying it out for the kids so they can take it home and use it immediately, organizers, bargain shoppers, administrator and someone to keep the big picture in front of us all so we know what direction we are heading. I love that. God really does know what we need and he provides it for us. Here comes the hard part. We have to use it. If we don't use it we will think we need something else or more of one thing and always feel like we lack
We must become better at using the gifts in people that God has placed in them. Gifts to serve, motivate, teach, encourage, direct, guide, administrate,etc, I love learning about the motivational gifts that God has given to the body. It helps me to understand how to better work with people. And let's face it, you cannot avoid working with people. And the more you know about them and understand them the more they will enjoy working with you.

Well on to the weekend. Saturday we had a work day at the church. We painted the Superchurch room and it feels so much better. A fresh start. Who doesn't love a fresh start. Saturday night we got home late and it had been a hard day for our dogs being cooped up in there kennels all day so we stayed home and crashed.

Sunday we went to church in the morning. It was family Sunday which means it's casual day. For us on the worship team that means we can wear jeans. I love options. After church we ran home and cleaned the toothpaste off the mirrors and picked up to get ready for Kinzies birthday party. Layne, Sara and Mariah came out to help. That was great.
Kinzie had a great party. There was lots of people there and she raked in the gifts
She is 3 now. Three is a fun age. One of my favorites. She and I are looking forward to spring. She is going to have her own little garden area. I think we will plant her some fast growing things like lettuce and stuff she can see quickly.
Sunday night after everyone left I watched a hallmark movie. I enjoy them. They area always feel good movies.

Yesterday I caught up on laundry. I litterly did laundry all day and in between loads made up new school schedules and checked work. It feels so good to be caught up and to know Larry once again has clean cloths.
