Disappointment to Blessing. Make it a habit

You can turn around a disappoint by taking your eyes off yourself.

Can I tell you a quick story? 

Well, back in the summer, we went to a King and Country concert…they are A.M.A.Z.I.N.G in concert, and I decided to buy tix for their concert this Friday night Dec. 8th. Bought the tickets back in July!

I got awesome seats and parking..spent a TON of money. All good, right? 

Well, alas. It’s been a VERY rough year for me (actually the past five but this past one has been the worst), and I was hoping for a break by Dec. 8th. I’ve been going to bed at like 8:45pm every night because that has been life or death for me. Since the concert starts at 7, and seriously I have a bit of fear to go. Breaking Tatum’s heart has been the toughest part.

We turned it all around; TATUM and I decided: LET’S DONATE THE TICKETS! She WOULD LOVE TO DONATE the tickets to someone in Unlimited Special Ministries or a Pastor at SBC.

We reached out to Carolyn Meyers at SBC who is the head of the Special Ministries.

This is her email.

Hi Steph, 

I reached out to all our DK Unlimited families as well as the special needs moms in our moms’ group at SBC.  A woman named Brittni has a son in a wheelchair She, her husband, and her sister will be going. She is THRILLED! How could she not be.  This is amazing! Thanks so much for thinking of our special needs families.  This is huge for them. 

So Grateful,

Carolyn

THEN, Brittni emailed:

Hi!

Can you please send this to the generous donor!

Hello!

Thank you so much for these concert tickets! We love country music and get out for concerts rarely so this is such a treat! So thankful for you generosity! 

Love, blessings and Merry Christmas!

Matt and Brittni Lamb and Brittni’s sister who is joining us;) 


Tatum also decided she’d give US a concert tonight! She’s been working so hard on practice. Here is her dress rehearsal.

I love her ATTITUDE. We have so much JOY. Yes, we miss out, but we MAKE THE MOST of it and SEE JESUS’ hand in everything.

Tonight’s her concert! We cannot wait. Make giving a habit. Amen.
