These past few days Jason and I have been helping two families from the states who are adopting children. While Jason has helped much more than me, this afternoon was my turn. They were supposedly just having a short doctor's visit, but it turned out to be long as the doctor was late and when she got there she sat and talked with the lawyer for a while before doing her appointments. Needless to say, while there should have been enough time to make it home before church, I didn't make it.
Just yesterday while packing I found two CD's of preaching that I had never heard before. They were from West Coast Baptist College and were so great. There is something about hearing preaching in your own language that talks to your heart like nothing else. The sermon was about how God uses things to make us better Christians. It was a great encouragement to me. Instead of going to church and watching the nursery, I got to hear preaching. YEAH!! Afterward it was so great to have a time of prayer without kids interrupting me. As there is no one but me to watch the nursery I do it, but many times I long to be able to sit in the service and hear the preaching.
Church tonight was low in attendance as the rainy season is upon us and it was raining so hard that not many people showed up. They had to have an abbreviated service tonight as it was raining so hard the preacher could not get his thoughts straight or for the congregation to even hear what he was saying.
