God Answers prayers, *funny*

This is just what I needed,

The Power of Prayer



After starting a new diet I altered my drive to work to avoid passing my favorite bakery. I accidentally drove by the bakery this morning and as I approached, there in the window were a host of goodies.

I felt this was no accident, so I prayed ... "Lord, it's up to you, if you want me to have any of those delicious goodies, create a parking place for me directly in front of the bakery."

And sure enough, on the eighth time around the block, there it was!

God is so Good!

God hears ALL our prayers, I remember people telling me that GOD answers all prayers, it may be yes, no, or wait awhile, I am glad that I have a GOD that will at times tell me to wait awhile,

I am so thankful for God's Blessings

When I think of the goodness of Jesus, and all He has done for me, I am in Awe, I know this is not how the song goes however, there are many times when there is nothing I am able to do and I am speechless, its okay to laugh some of you are laughing and saying, wow Cheri Speechless, that’s funny.
For the last couple of months or so, those of you who know, I have been contemplating on what to do, about the living situation, where I am going to move am I going to get an apartment on my own again, stay where I am, find a roommate, and I have went as far, as am I to move back to California? I was so serious about moving to California, that I did everything and was going to ask for a meeting with Pastor Garrett, Well after praying for awhile I know that moving to California is NOT the will of GOD right now,
I remember a good friend of mine telling me that you need to pray diligently and asking GOD what He things about a situation, before going to Pastor. God gives us enough knowledge to handle things, I guess what I am trying to say is when we are going through something trival, such as should I go here tonight, you don’t have to go to your Pastor, you have the ability to make some decision on your own, but remember you are the one that made that decision and you HAVE to pay the consequences, some of us go to Pastor, and don’t like what he has to say and do what we are going to do anyways, if you already have your mind made up why go to pastor in the first place.
There are times when we have to go to Pastor, for he is the Watchman over our souls, I thank GOD for the Pastors’ in my life, Pastor and Sister Garrett are my Pastor and wife now, I am blessed to be in Arizona. But I will say that Pastor Allard is a part of my life, Pastor Paul Wilson, was my very first Pastor, and Sis Wilson is still a part of my life, I can call on her and know that she has been praying, Sis Allard, is also a very important person in my walk with GOD, She is an encourager and I love them all,
A few years ago, there was a situation with a very close friend, and I went to Pastor Garrett for some advice about moving, he advised me not to go, that certain things would be different, well I didn’t believe him at the time, my feelings were out there, and I stayed, and I will say that since I had listened to him that my walk with GOD had been different, and everything that he said in the office on that morning has come to pass, I thank God that when it was all in the beginning and I was rebellious and wanted to go anyways that I have a pastor and church family that loves me enough to tell me like it is, and that they love me enough to be there when I didn’t understand. I hope this all makes since, Love you all
