33"I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world."


For the last two days, God has blessed me with a lunch buddy and her name is Lucy. She is one of my co-workers at my day job. And since our office is right across the street from the park, and there's plenty of tables and chairs, that's where we went.

Yesterday we talked about stuff going on in the company and I had my suspicions that there was something familiar about her. So today I simply asked "Where do you go to church?" It turns out our NYC churches are sister churches and are studying similar issues right now.

Since Lucy doesn't have a second job like me, she's really been able to plug in and get involved. I did some volunteering at Journey over the summer after work and LOVED it! It was nice to have one part of my day where my skill set could be used for His Glory. George was also cool about me going (as usual- he doesn't hold me back from anything actually). So it got me thinking: is He calling me to be an admin. for Christ full time?

I have no idea what that will mean but I think I'm going to put some feelers out there and see.

In the meantime, I have been granted some peace through this new sisterhood and when I found out another co-worker is a SIC, I suggested we split up praying for our company in 3 :). We'll see how that goes, if God makes a way it will not be blocked.
