MacBook Pro

Alright Alright, we gave in and Andrew bought a new laptop. It was the one he wanted and the greatest of it all is that it is no interest for 24 months. We are gonna get it paid off quickly.
We are looking good and onward to saving for a new car for me!! Who hoo we are probably going to buy a Mazda 3 because it gets good gas mileage and it was highly rated by consumer reports and I really like the style. I would have preferred a SUV but we just cannot and do not want to afford the gas on it.
Looks like my dad is looking at getting married sometime in September, so things have progressed very nicely for my dad and I am so happy that he is moving along and has a companion.
I have been working with a very difficult boss and I don't know even where to start. She is an ordained minister but yet has treated me like crap from day 1. She is horrible with communication and lies every time she turns around. God has really taught me an all around life lesson about difficult people and how to deal with them. See, in the beginning I would get upset when she would lie, get upset about how she presents projects to me and how she disrespects me. I have prayed very hard for quite some time and God has really given me HIS spirit in dealing with her. I have been taught how to ignore the things she does because well... it's just a job. It's not my #1 priority... GOD is. I smile and nod and move on and forget about my day at work when I am not there. Ultimately it does not fall on my shoulders. My soul misses and longs for God's spirit to be upon me in the day. So when I forget to do my devotion in the morning I truly miss that time of intimacy with God. During my devotion in the morning, all my burdens and all my worries are given to him. God's faithfulness amazes even more and more everyday as I see Him answering my prayers. I see him working in our lives... the possibility of moving into a house and just providing for our everything. I have been given the opportunity to experience the presence of God on a daily basis because I have a sincere desire to spend time with Him and for Him to be always present wherever I am in my day. I am forever thankful for the ability that my Father has given me. I realize that even at a whisper "Father..." I know that He is there before my eyes can even twinkle. So I whisper "Father, give me your spirit today so I can be a witness and send your Holy Spirit to us to make this day yours" I pray that you would be able to experience God like I have recently.
