Dinner With Friends

November 7

My husband, Michael, and I took a night off from all the work we have been doing on our kitchen and went to dinner at our friend's house. Cindy and Jeff had us over and blessed us with a beautiful night. Jeff loves to cook, and he certainly outdid himself tonight. Cindy said she just wanted to give us a little reprieve from the stress and hard work of the construction. And she absolutely delivered. The conversation was easy, and the food was delicious. Spending an evening being pampered and cared for was so refreshing. Michael and Jeff talked as much as Cindy and I did. Cindy and I were able to speak about some deep things of God. We shared some of the ways God has been revealing himself to us. As I find the words to explain what God is teaching me, my understanding deepens. My soul felt refreshed, and I went homes full of life. I was blessed beyond measure. Tonight was just what I needed. Michael and I drove home a little later than we expected, talking about the joy of having such good friends.
