\"What<\/a><\/p>\n

I’m filling in for Martha this week, as she is out of town with family.<\/p>\n

I’ve been praying about what I want to share on this blog this week, since last week. \u00a0When you think about it, this is one very important question that we all need to ask ourselves. \u00a0Are we doing what we want to be doing when Christ comes back? \u00a0Are we doing what Christ wants us to be doing when He returns? \u00a0Or are we just floundering through life doing whatever, whenever, with whomever?<\/p>\n

The words that I want to hear when I see Him face to face, either in heaven or here on earth, is “Well done thy good and faithful servant.” \u00a0I think we all want to hear those words. \u00a0I want to know that everything I have done here on earth brings glory to Him, honors Him, and reflects Him as the loving, redeeming, forgiving, gracious Lord that He is.<\/p>\n

I want to be reaching out to women all across the world, fulfilling the word that He has given me time and time again, to spread the gospel across all nations! \u00a0On several occasions, the Lord told me that He wants me to spread the gospel worldwide; three different Scriptures, on three different occasions, confirmed this for me.<\/p>\n

Today, almost one year since I started Girlfriends Coffee Hour, I do feel as if I am doing what He wants me to be doing, and I pray that I am still ministering to women all across the world through GCH, when Christ returns! \u00a0This ministry has been such a huge blessing to see how God is working in so many lives, marriages, families, etc. \u00a0It has been such an honor to be used by Him to minister to women in need, who need to see Jesus in their circumstances, and in their lives. \u00a0It’s been such a blessing to pray with women all over the world; to encourage them; to study the Word with them, and so on.<\/p>\n

I also have another side to my life that some of you may not know about. \u00a0I am a foster mom to kids whose families are in crisis, or just need help. \u00a0I am brand new at this, having had only one placement so far. \u00a0My husband, Gary, and I both know that this is something God called us to. \u00a0We both have hearts for kids who have bad homes, or need to be shown the love of God. \u00a0Our first placement ended this last weekend. \u00a0My heart is sad because the two precious little ones that we had for a period of time were the most adorable little boys ever!! \u00a0To wake up each morning and see their smiling little faces, Wow! \u00a0I can’t even begin to tell you what that does to your heart! \u00a0I pray God will continue to use us\u00a0in this manner, and make us even better at parenting future kids that will come into our home.<\/p>\n

So, in answer to the question “Is this what I want to be doing when Christ comes back?” I would say that no matter what I am doing, all I want to hear is Him say to me, “Well done thy good and faithful servant.” \u00a0I want to do all that I can to the glory of Him who has called and chosen me.<\/p>\n

**********<\/p>\n

Let’s Pray:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lord, I pray for each person that is reading this blog today. \u00a0I pray, Lord, that they would truly search their hearts to make sure that they are doing what You have called them to do. May they begin to seek You in all that they do, Lord. \u00a0May they do all that they do to bring You glory and honor! \u00a0May Your plans for their lives be exactly what YOU have called them to do! Our only goal, Lord, should be to bring glory and honor to YOU, Lord, in ALL that we do. \u00a0We love You so very much! \u00a0In Your precious Name, AMEN!<\/p>\n
