For the past year John Mark and our family have befriended a lady at our church named Suzie. What a wonderful woman of God and what an encouragement to our lives. She is not your typical OC lady. She has long Grey hair, loves to wear pink (Rebekah loves that), pulls a backpack around and is never with out her leg warmers and has the most joyful smile on her face. She knows the Bible like the back of her hand and she always has a word from the Lord for us. And to be honest, they are so refreshing, truthful and loving. I love hearing her speak God's word and I love that she is our friend. She knows us all by name and knows that God has a calling for each person in our family.
Last night she gave John Mark our favorite verse
1 Corinthians 2:9
9However, as it is written:
"No eye has seen,
no ear has heard,
no mind has conceived
what God has prepared for those who love him
and then she said that it came from
Isaiah64:4
4 Since ancient times no one has heard,
no ear has perceived,
no eye has seen any God besides you,
who acts on behalf of those who wait for him.
I had been reading 1 Corin. 2:9 earlier in the day and was thinking about loving God. And then she gave us this verse and it talking about waiting for him. What an amazing moment for me as I wait on God and trust in him through faith.
