doors

Ever feel like God is getting ready to open a door and then He doesn't? Dang!

I know He's gonna open it but I want it now! Haha. I am learning how to become a more patient person- God knows that I need work on that full well! There are a few doors that I am currently waiting on God to open for me. The adventure is using the time I am waiting for good and not just sitting back wasting time while I wait. Maybe God will change my direction, my purpose, or my desire. It so difficult to let God have complete control over a situation. I always think that I have given something to God then something pops up and out comes my desire to try to handle things myself. I am robbing myself of the suprises God has in store for me I am sure. When will I learn? I can't trick Him! He is too good ;-)

Well- as of today I am still waiting for those doors to open and trying to let God prepare me, use me, and humble me into His divine direction. I'll enjoy the journey along the way..wherever that leads....
scary

the latest

so the new rudy's want to know what's going on with us. okay new rudy's here ya go...
so whats the latest with the bowmans???
let's see.... Paul is starting grad school in two weeks. Going to Spring Arbor Univeristy with a degree in Spiritual Formation and Leadership. So he will be hitting the books for the next few years and tightening the budget- a lot! Haha. I am excited about what God has in store for him through this opportunity. You know how sometimes you feel like God is just really in the mix of something...I feel like He is on this one.
Me- I am getting really excited about the cool stuff God's doing at Calvary Community Center. I just scheduled the Dover Symphony Orchestra for an entire concert season of pratice space, am working on getting an aerobics/dance class for adults and dance classes for kids. We already have a few other things giong on there now. I have been praying that God would lead the way on this- I can't do all this big stuff without Him. It's been so great knowing that CCC can help support the arts in our community. It's insipiring.
Otherwise Paul and I are so blessed that our one eye'd puppy Zeke is doing well and can still catch a ball with only one good eye! His "crazy" eye actually moves like normal and looks so great- not too creepy at all. He is so stinkin' cute. He's got such a personality.
We would love to hear from you!! what's going on with you?
comment or email! :-)
