Gut level faith is right. Wow! It seems to me that your love for God, and your desire to serve Him, was more important to you than your fears were tormenting you. And you trusted Him in the midst of those fears. What an amazing testimony your story is to the love and power of God, and the reward of a yielded heart. I am eager to hear of those things and/or people you will be sharing about your travels in future entries of your story. I am hoping to hear more about your role in these travels and conferences, too.<BR/><BR/>I have been meaning to look Norman, up on the internet as I had never heard of him. The humbleness of spirit you write about in this post gave me cause to stop and do that. There was quite a bit to read. I chose to go to www.normangrubb.com and do some reading. Barbara, what a blessing to have spent time with this man. He led an extraordinary life. I saw some books on that web site that I think I will read. What an incredible man.<BR/><BR/>I want to tell you that when I read where you wrote, <BR/>“<I>A journey of a thousand miles certainly begins with a single step as the saying goes. God takes us on one step at a time and as we are obedient and faithful in that then He takes us on to the next.</I>”<BR/>I had to stop for a bit. The Spirit really ministered to me that I need to take that and apply it to my life. And, there was nothing mysteries about His leading, I knew exactly what He was sowing into my heart. Thank you, for writing that.<BR/><BR/>I am sorry about the taxi driver thing again. There is greed and deception and heartlessness out there, all over the states. I think you have seen that before with a taxi driver and helicopter pilot. So, I am really glad you have had some positive and good encounters here.Teresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12764866689330676750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606833213419475387.post-24285507187177373312008-02-19T01:45:00.000+00:002008-02-19T01:45:00.000+00:0064 flights!

Norman sounded like a neat guy. Do you mind if I cut and paste the poem? I love it.Paulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16054187209428838640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606833213419475387.post-77477098220306397852008-02-16T18:44:00.000+00:002008-02-16T18:44:00.000+00:00Barbara, I enjoyed reading your latest installment...Barbara, I enjoyed reading your latest installment....absorbing and full of interest as always. That verse "The Will of God" is wonderful. Isn't it funny to look back at what we once considered the height of fashion...I used to have some big huge glasses just like those!
