Apartment living after 42 years, WoW

Wow, Wow, Wow!!!  Life is so alive!  It still amazes me that at age 77 I can grow, change, move with the young and keep up (sort of).  I am so honored and blessed to be counted in the number of those God has chosen to be in His next move.  It is not without sacrifice, or challenges but it is with JOY!
When we know Jesus as the Son of God, and know Him personally, we are then restored into fellowship with Father God Almighty and willing to give up everything that we held dear to our hearts for Him.  Knowing that He loves us more than anybody, and wants the best for us.   We don't know what is best for us and I have learned, that without Him we can do nothing that works out right.  So life moves on:

Adjusting for both of us is interesting and emotionally challenging.  We are heavily involved with the new Ministry and it's growth as well as establishing our home in an Apartment.  Let me explain.  My Grandson and I are polar opposite in personality, background, experiences and expressions.  He is nearly 52 and we both are pretty much "set" in our ways.  God is working with both of us to to help each other grow (which can be stressful at times).  The things we have in common are that we both grew up in a strict religious background and were saved at an early age,  We both strayed from God and we both returned and are fully submitted and committed to Him now.  We both lost or gave up everything that was important to us and are sold out to Father God and working to stay in God's plan for our lives.   We were both florists.  We both love fellowships and love to entertain in style.  And we love nature and travel.  We both were called here together by God and we both know that it is important that we work out our differences for the plan that God has for , and it is working!

Spiritually, we are good for each other, we have different gifts and we can help each other in many ways and that is great because we are both growing and God is fine tuning us for His service. I received a message from Father a few days ago, that jerked my chain!  He asked me if I loved Him from my heart, and if I was totally surrendered to Him.  I had put Him on hold, thinking He would wait until I finished doing my moving thing.  I had not read His Word, prayed to Him or listened to Him in almost two weeks.  I had gotten distracted and the adversary had drawn me off course.  I repented and got back on track, but that was a wake-up call.

Two days ago I was out looking for furniture at a Hospice resale store and found a Dinig room table that seats 12+ with 6 chairs and two leaves that extend it, a Dining room Hutch to match in beautiful dark wood and a small desk with four drawers, all for $255.  It is going to be great for Fellowships and eligant dinners.  Asher is a Chef and loves to cook and hates paper and plastic (Thank God we have a dishwasher).   Well, Ididn't mean to make this so long but when I don't blog every day....😅😆
