Excited like a Kid in a Candy Store!!

Have you ever been so excited it takes you back to that feeling when you were a child and got to go to the candy store and looking around at all these wonderful delectable candies you could choose from??  Meeeeee Tooooo!! (Oh to be a kid again!) :-)


I am not sure if I have gotten to share with you a whole lot about My Family and Church. Well My DH (aka Dear Hubby) is a Pastor at a Little Country Baptist Church in El Paso, Arkansas. Never once did I EVER EVER see myself as a Pastor's Wife let me tell you. That just proves more and more that it is the work of none other then the Good Lord Himself working thru us. So let me catch you up and fill you in on some of my Spiritual Life.

This how the story begins......

The Lord brought us to Royal Hill over a year ago to help and fill in while they were searching for the Pastor the Lord would lead to them. In the beginning DH and I didn't feel lead to take the Church.. but about 6+ months ago, the Lord did some dealing on my DH's heart and showed him that was where He wanted us to be, wow!! At first I had some mixed emotions, I was going to be leaving some really good friends at our then Home Church. But the Lord later comforted me and showed me, where my place was and it was at Royal Hill Baptist Church in El Paso, Arkansas. Whoa.. I was so not so sure, but I never doubted the Lord and his work in this matter tho, b/c the Lord has NEVER EVER let us down or never let us fall. So we are now Pastor and Pastor's Wife of this amazing little Country Church. At first it was just 3-5 of us and then the Lord has lead some others there, and now we are upto close to 12 every Sunday. Praise the Lord!!! He is so Awesome!! Such an answer to prayers, b/c back a year ago this little church was thinking their doors might have to be shut... but they knew the Lord would see them thru . You know what He did too. Opps I am spoiling the story.. Let me continue on. :-)  (can you tell that I am excited to tell you more?? )

When we first started Pastoring Royal Hill the only service we had was Preaching, then on down the road a few months the Lord opened up Sunday School, we had a Children's Class and an Adult class. It was also an answer to Prayer as well. Then about 3 or so months ago the Lord opened up Sunday night service. Do you see a pattern here?

Well since all that we have been in Prayer about Wed night Services too. You know what the Lord had really burdened our hearts for this too. We had a business meeting a week ago Sunday and this was one of the topics of business. You know what the Lord did??

You guessed it!!! He allowed the Wed Night Services to be opened up. So last night we had our very first Wed Night Service. We had a Kids Class and also a Adult class. It was such a wonderful and oh so blessed time.

The Lord is so mighty and so true and as long as we continue to put Him first the Lord is going to continue to bless us. I am so excited to share this wonderful news with you all this week! I have so been that,"Kid in the Candy Store" due to the excitement of the Work of the Lord!

Do you have a story of a time in your life when you had that "Kid in the Candy Store Excitement?" I would love to hear about what the Lord has done in your life as well! Share with me!

Till next time!

In Christ,
