My new job:)

You wouldn't think your job would teach you lots about our walk with Christ, but mine did yesterday! I began at Chick-Fil-A yesterday at the Mall. Jenny, my boss, was telling me all about their marketing, which is what I will be doing at the Mall. She had this box of stuff and I got all excited because I love looking through boxes!

Basically, Chick-Fil-A's marketing is all about giving away. Can you believe it! I can't believe that everyday I just get to look for ways to give stuff away and make people happy. This is so biblical on so many levels and yesterday really impacted my normal life. How much do I give away, and if I do give it away do I give it away cheerfully and without the want of getting back. We don't get paid on sales, we just get paid to make people happy without the need or want of getting back. Whoa! That is radical!

I am especially excited about something I get to do everyday. It is the Chick-Fil-A Business of the Day. I get to go to a store in the Mall and tell them that they are our business of the day and give their employees that day free chicken! Yesterday we did the Body Shop and their reactions were awesome, they were amazed and that is the whole point! As I think about their faces and reactions now, I am realizing how I reacted and felt the first time I really grasped the free gift of Jesus Christ to me. Wow, if I and all of us would just be continually thankful for His gift the same way we get excited about free chicken and want to share that knowledge with others so that they might experience the gift of God; salvation through Christ alone. Please pray for open doors to share. Right now its all about building relationships and if God wants to open doors, then just pray that I will be an obedient child of God and willing to say what He wants me to say!

CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK
Be looking for how you can partner with God this week in doing His will for your life.

Oi!

Well, fellow sojourners, this has been quite the weekend! I am not going to get into details, just know that I am pooped out, emotionally and mentally. I am sorry that I am so late in the day getting to this. I worked at Chick-Fil-A today and then got together with some friends to talk. It has been a very productive and good day.

Ashleigh, I am going to ask for your patience on the question you asked last week. I promise I am going to get to it. With events that happened this weekend, it is spilling over into my life as we speak and I have to say I am a little overwhelmed. But, I promise this, I am going to get to it and my plan is to have an answer for you at the end of the week. I appreciate you so much and I hope you know I take very seriously every question that is asked of me.

There is nothing really spiritual today except a quote from my pastor yesterday that was amazing. 'Foolishness is defined as follows: the absence of intelligence, the absence of thinking through truth.' Wow, how it affected me and related to all that happened this weekend.

Love to you all and may you have a restful evening, full of the Lord's grace.

NChrist, Susan
