Well, once again I think I may have something good to write. This has been quite a busy week, Thanksgiving was awesome! I started out by helping at an outreach my church put together cooking thanksgiving meals and delivering plates to families and individuals. It was awesome we had so much food that we made and delivered close to 700 plates!! STILL HAD FOOD LEFT OVER TO DONATE TO OTHER MINISTRY PLACES!! Then I went to a friends house and had lunch with a bunch of people had 2 plates of amazing food, rested and then went to another family's home for Dinner!! What an awesome day! Something that God has really been showing me over this last week is the importance of serving people. I know that I am a missionary and it is expected of me to want to serve and I do, I LOVE IT. Though this week He has given me MANY opportunities to build relationships and I have enjoyed every one of them. I helped do some work on a house on Saturday, Sunday I just got to hang out with friends and fellowship. LIFE IS ALL ABOUT RELATIONSHIPS and I have seen the value in that these last few days. I have had my own agenda for my days and I have constantly had to rearrange my day to meet the needs of others and it is SO GREAT! To have the opportunity to take time and invest my time and energy into helping someone else is awesome. 2 of my friends moved off island this week and it was awesome to just be able to be available for them in their time of need. To take my time and get boxes for them, help them pack and then today to take and finalize all the paperwork for their stuff that is being shipped back to the states. If I hadn't made myself available to them they probably wouldn't have gotten all their stuff done. It is just a matter of not being concerned about my project list for the day and taking time to invest in people. To serve and meet the needs of anyone I can. I feel so privileged when I have someone call me and ask if I can help them, or when I can offer advice and speak truth into lives. I love it!! I know that every opportunity I get is given to me by God and I don't want to disappoint him in anything. I will take time no matter how long it takes to accomplish his purpose. Never overlook an opportunity to love someone. Smile at the people passing by me and starting conversation with ones I can. It is a matter of just being available to be used by God. You never know what you can offer someone. I have constantly had this phrase in my head KINGDOM BUSINESS! That is what I am about, I am an INVESTOR in KINGDOM BUSINESS. Investing into the lives of people!! I LOVE IT!!

And you yourself must be an example to them by doing good works of every kind. Let everything you do reflect the integrity and seriousness of your teaching. Titus 2:7
