Day 4

Onto day 4. I had planned to cook or bake something for someone but as usual, my day got busy... with life. heh
So I wrote another note. I thought long about who I wanted to write to, and I realized that I should be praying about who I need to be encouraging. So I did, and will continue, to ask God to reveal to me who needs some encouraging.
Today, I wrote a note to J____. She is a young girl in our church who seems to be a bit of a loner. She has been coming faithfully, along with her brother and parents, as long as I've been here (and for the rest of her life before that, I believe) but has always been an outsider. The young people accept her, but she is not "the popular one". I spoke with her a little while on Sunday, and I realized that far too many times, I walk by her and say hello, but never really "notice" her. So I wrote her a little note, telling her how I appreciate her, her sweet spirit, and her great example for my girls. I hope it helps brighten her day.
I did, however, go shopping. I bought cookie dough and cake mix, brownie mix, and a few easy meals. I am hoping to get on top of things and deliver something more than a card.
I will try to bake something in the morning. I wanted to bake tonight but as my husband is on a diet, I felt it would be unfair to fill the house with the glorious smell of cookies.
