Finally..... Freedom

I have been struggling lately with going to church and the Y. Don't ask me how that started, but I know how I feel. We were going to a church in Waukee when I started feeling uncomfortable. It seemed like the music portion and the sermon was just a performance to man. It got so I refused to go there anymore, beginning with leaving the service and waiting for my hubby in the car.

We then started going to a church in West Des Moines (Lutheran, which I was raised in). I liked it, but something was missing. We used to go to an A of G church in Des Moines, but quit going there when we moved out west. Finally, I knew I wasn't being fed, felt like my spirit was tied up. I quit going to church at all.

One day my daughter, Abby, invited me to go to an A of G church on the south side not too far from where she lives. I loved it, my spirit felt free! The only drawback was the long drive to get there. When she had her baby, she took a few weeks off from going there.

Meanwhile, I've been seeing Him in everything outdoors and praying out there. I began to feel like that is where I should be. I didn't feel like I needed to be in a building to feel Him.

Yesterday, Steve asked me to go with him to Abby's church. My whole self rebelled, but I made myself go to be with Steve and Abby. Once inside the church, I felt my spirit soar again. Finally.....freedom. That is where I am supposed to be. Heather even told me she'd go next Sunday with me!!!!

To have freedom from criminals stealing information from your credit cards, passports, debit cards, anything that has your important information on them, without touching your purse (or wallet), you need rfid blocking wallets. I didn't know people could electronically get your info until I read about these. What a great way to keep creeps out of your personal life!

Until Sunday, have a wonderful day and weekend!
