A.D.D.

So This past week has been fun. I found myself wanting to be of use to my Lord. So with that I started volunteering with the youth at our church on Wednesday nights. I felt like a fish out of water and was a bit let down in the beginning.
I don't know what I was expecting but when I got there it wasn't that. I show up and found myself wondering around with people walking past me. No one really seemed interested in striking up a conversation with the "new girl" which I understand, it's not my forte either. I know all of you that know me wouldn't think that it is that hard for me to engage with others in topics. The truth is I fake it til I make it...:) pretty clever hu.
I quickly found a chair to sit in and hunkered down with my tail between my legs. Occationally someone would come by and say Lindsey this is so in so.....and well that was that.
We had a "Yuck" night which consisted of a number of pretty nasty games the youth played against the adults and parents. I concidered this to be a fantastic icebreaker. Even though I still did not get the opp. to learn more about the other leaders and volunteers I got to enjoy some laughs with them. First step done. I know that this next week will be so much more fun now that that awkward first date is over...:)

I know that no mater what situation I am in as long as I am there to better the kingdom of my God it is right and good.

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path. Psalms 119:105

In the meantime our Life group is getting off to a slow start but small is good sometimes I think. We have 3 couples and a dear friend and her little girl. Together with children there are 12 members! Wow that sounds so much better. LOL Okay so there is actually only 7 adults and 5 kiddos. Still the Lord is blessing our mission and I can't wait to see what else he has in store for us. Our name by the way since we had to have one is A.D.D. which is perfect for my dear husband as the leader! :) It also means Adults Deeply Devoted. So pray for us and our Life Group if you will.
