Dream job. That's what I have. I get to think things up then make them happen. Reality is my ideas are kinda good, like normal cake vs. my great grandma's cake. My ideas are normal cake and God's ideas are crazy good, like my great grandma's cake. Thankfully God is invested in me and my job and shares his ideas with me. Sometimes we're in sync from the beginning sometimes he shows up last minute with a "saving the day-out of thin air" brilliant idea. Last week was one of those times.
All of October & November- Knew I had Kid's Christmas Night. Thought it would come together. Got caught off guard, things fell through :/ wrong type of falling. Started really praying about it as November was rounding it's bend. Was completely unsure about what was going to happen.
Tuesday-ready to cancel the whole night, talked it over with my parents. Decided it'll be okay, still doable.
Wednesday- After a lonnng talk with Randy I started pulling people in, asking them to do what they do well.
Saturday- returned a few texts
Sunday 2pm- show up to a task force starting to hit full swing
Sunday 4pm- the room has been transformed, the kids mouths are gaping & are wide eyed.
Next 2 hours there's sugar and glitter flying! A stellar movie shown by Backyard Studios Dancing, pictures being taken and people who worship together meeting each other. (at last)
6pm-7pm everything gets torn down. You wouldn't know the kid party of the year had just happened. :)
God has such good ideas. He honestly is the only one who can take the smallest amount of credit for how amazingly well it went. I'm glad I get to be along for the ride :)
