1 week into the Challenge,

Well it has been just over a week since my last post, and what God has been challenging me about.
This past week i have been spending more time with Christ, and although i haven't had a chance to get out on the street or in the community more, God has given me more opportunities to share His love with people, and also the Good News of Jesus, most of the time they have been when i least expect them and with people who i least expect. Mind you it is Jesus who gives me the words to say, (cause i am not the best with talking). And it has been Awesome and i thank Him for everything this week. Even for the fact that i lost my keys somehow on friday before the soup run, (they showed up after the soup run), cause it gave me something in which to connect with one of my friends from the soup run.
Now the reason i haven't been out on the streets or in the community more, is cause i have had a lot more work this past week, i worked 5 days and 2 nights. i usually only do 3 days and 1 night, so that i have time to be out and about.... but work were desperate, so i did a couple of extra shifts, which i have worked enough to pay for a camera to replace the one that was lost a few weeks ago... so i praise God for those shifts, cause i believe it was His way to provide for me.
Even though i have been busy working, and sleeping a little less than normal, Christ has given me the energy to go through the day, and filled me with His joy, which stays with me for my entire day.
So all i can do is praise God and thank Him for a great week, for His love, mercy, grace and joy, cause with out them i'd be dead tired and lost
