Let The Church Say Amen

Well today C.J. went to church! It was a long time coming if I might say so myself. She was dressed up and cloaked in a nice red coat which made her smile shine. Babies in church are always a big hit but we made sure to limit the fuss about and around her. We still have to be careful of germs and sanitation.

The songs were sung, the prayers were prayed and the word came forth and C.J. actually remained awake for most of it. I could hear her making noise when I would get up to speak. Once I began my sermon all was shut out because I am focused 100% on listening to the Lord.

After service she was greeted by many well wishes who have been praying for her since she was born. C.J. would smile at some but remain neutral with others. Maybe this is the beginning of her determining who she will and will not deal with. She might be onto something and I may need to talk to her to see if I should "x" some people from my lists, lol.

Finally it was off to Great-Grandma's to have dinner. Now everyone wants C.J. to get a taste of some real food but she has a little more time to wait. Today she shared the house with her cousins, three others were there. It was fun to see her interact even just for a little bit with them all. The work week begins tomorrow. Back to the hustle and bustle that is our everyday lives but as the message reminded us today, always take a timeout if needed to make sure you are in the will of God. You all remember to pray because prayer changes things!
