The point of mom's call was that she wanted me to know how much they loved me and how proud they where of me. I get that call a lot from them, but today I was especially in need of it. Anyone else ever have those days? Days where you just need to know that someone loves you and is proud of you? In my prayer this morning I asked God to please send me some love. Two minutes later the phone was ringing. An hour later, I had no doubt that my mom had listened to God's Spirit and called me to share that love. It sounds corny. Almost as corny as that big old harvest from my daddy's garden. I am convinced that many, many, many times we miss what God puts on our table...and he makes sure someone calls or visits to let us know that He is mindful of us as an individual. I felt it today. I'm glad it was a corny day. My point...if you feel like being corny today, you should be. It may be just what someone else needs.

I know just what you are talking about here. Truly the Lord hears our prayers and answers them through his servants on this earth. I'm glad that your mom is my mom too....she is one of the Lord's trusted servants because she always listens when he asks her to serve us...to lift us when we are down, and when we didn't realize we would be headed there...
