*God inspires me in more ways at MOPS*

I wanted to share my day with you it was a lot of fun. Today at MOPS we played a game called bunko it was a great game to get to know the people around you and just enjoy the simplicity of rolling dice! We also were able to do a craft this week. One I was so excited to do because it involved making sweets and making them look pretty!!! All the while God knew I needed Him to speak to me....

So anyway I am going to share my craft with you so that if you need a good gift giving idea you will be able to use it :)

Cowboy Cookie Jar Mix

If you can't see this charm it says EXPECT MIRACLES!!! This is the one I picked up not knowing what it said. With the recent news of my pastor being very ill, my Dad sick, Scott's grandpa Bob having health problems, also my husband having a tear in his shoulder God wanted to remind me He is MORE than able to preform MIRACLES. I am to EXPECT them!!! Thank you Holy Spirit for not being quiet during this time!
