Had a great day in church and fellowship, including a love lunch!
After that, I went to meet my potential new roomy and we instantly connected! She is another 50+ woman, and so is the owner- so it felt great!
I am taking the place and will say more tomorrow.
I also had a gym visit. And...tonight, I kick over to the Intermittent Fasting/Daniel Fast + Protein plan. In some ways, this one is harder than what I've been doing-but, it will be good for me!
Starting with the 13 hr fast-only water.
God is Jehovah Jireh- the Lord my Provider

I want to give a little testimony about this place that I've been led to.
I had had my heart set on something. This is often the case when we are believing God for His provision. We decide how it should look, the form it should take, when it should come or the delivery package it comes as. Sometimes, these view are created by limiting beliefs. Holding on to our ideas can keep us from seeing and receiving the best that God wants to give us.
I knew God had called me back to the church I am attending: ROFC Reach Out for Christ and the quality of welcome I received and the place made for me confirms this profoundly. I had thought perhaps I would have a home there, too, as there are some accommodation options there-but none are right for me, at this point.

When I awoke last Tuesday and this hit home, so I prayed "Lord, lead me to the place YOU have prepared for me, please." With that simple faith-filled request, I abandoned my own ideas about what I wanted. I know very well how capable God is of supplying me with accommodation, no matter how hard it may seem in the natural-and I don't tick the boxes for real estate agents in any way!
A few seconds later, I went online and for some reason, only two places came up. Both with 50+ women (I hadn't wanted to share at all-but I had requested friends my age!) and both offering a second room, which I need as a home office. The more expensive one was in a more desired location ( according to my desires), but the other was still close to church, still close to the beach and nearer to my daughter and grandbabies- plus, it was a GREAT deal!
God is good, and He is faithful. He always keeps His promises, but we must trust Him to deliver in His perfect timing and in his own perfect way- and Rejoice! as we wait patiently. :)
So, I am going to leave you with this verse:
Rejoice in the Lord, always. Again , I say Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all , The Lord is near. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything, by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which passes all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. Phil 4:4-7
Amen! Amen! Amen!
