Again we deeply appreciate all of your prayers and encouraging words and would love to know how we can pray for you!

I Got The Job......
Praise the Lord, I finally got the job at Starbucks!!!
I just have to say that God definitely knew what He was doing with our job situations. Benj turned down a job that a friend was generous enough to offer because neither of us had a peace about it and the pay would, in all reality, only pay for gas money and tolls because it was so far away.
Anyway, Tuesday morning I really didn't want to call Starbucks to check on whether or not I was actually hired and Benj stopped what he was doing and said that I needed to pray about it. So that is exactly what I did and even asked God to put my name on their hearts and minds and that I would find favor with them somehow. I received some clear direction that I did in fact need to call them instead of just waiting even though I still did not want to call and be an annoyance. As soon as I called the manager said that I was hired even though I can't start till the 24th and that she thought it was funny that I called because she was just thinking about me and looking over my application!!!
Praise God--He heard my every word and I am so thankful that this is where He wants me! I am really praying now that this will be a place to meet and influence many people and that He will use it to grow Discover Church and that I may be an encouragement to those that I work with!!!!

Yesterday's Trip to the ER....
First I want to thank many of you for all of your prayers for Benj's eye. I do appologize for not being clear with everyone what was going on too. A few days ago, he noticed a cloudy spot toward the middle of his eye making it hard for him to see out of his left eye (he's not in any pain whatsoever).
Monday we went to the eye Dr. to see if there was something wrong or if he just needed glasses. After looking at it, the doctor from walmart said that she thought it might just be a common thing (a hemorrhaged blood vessel) but that we would need to take him to an eye specialist to get it checked right away!
Yesterday, (Tuesday), we waited a glorious 8 hours in an ER at the University of Miami to see a specialist. Benj went through a few tests and after a whole day we still don't know what it is. There's definitely fluid by the retina and the doctor said he should come back if it gets larger or if it doesn't go away in a couple of weeks. She can always inject medicine into his eye to dry up the fluid but we are praying he won't have to go through that :)
Again, thank you for your prayers and please continue to pray that it goes away on its own! We will keep you updated and we just praise God that it's nothing too serious!

Overwelmed with blessings from God.....
We have had a great weekend and I just wanted to let you all know of some great blessings in our lives that God is overwhelming us with!
As many of you know, Benj and I went to our best friends' wedding in Pennsylvania two weeks ago! We had a good time seeing friends from school, however, we were somewhat discouraged because of the amount of money needed for plane tickets, hotels, food, and other expenses. The evening we arrived back in FL, we checked the mail and there we found checks just over the amount we spent on this trip! Praise God and Him alone! What an encouragement to know that we have a God that cares about us so much!!!
He continues to encourage us and amaze us every DAY that goes by. Even as we are still waiting on my job situation, He blesses us and we have peace knowing that He is providing and He does have a plan!
God is good--all the time!
