Several weeks before giving my sermon on God`s grace, I noticed a new face at our worship service. As the praise band plays, her hands are usually high in the air praising our Lord. There is a warm smile of contentment glowing on her face, as she holds on to her bible!
After delivering my sermon, which I had made reference to the "God Look" I went up to this young lady and hugged her and complimented her on her God glow.
This week she came up to me and we introduced ourselves. Tammy asked if we needed help, I shared with her that we were getting ready for our Divine Diva Retreat for young girls in our church. I briefly explained what Divine Diva was about and asked if she would like to help. She was delighted to be included.
As we packed what we needed for our weekend Tammy shared that she feels the call to help teach young girls. She is currently living in a local shelter, like many of us I was sure that Tammy has valuable life lessons to share.
Tammy is on fire for the Lord and said that not everyone shares her enthusiasm; today she called to double check the time of our meeting. She said that she is so excited about helping on this weekend, that she started crying, not sad tears but happy tears. Tammy said, she knew I would understand. She was right! This weekend is going to benefit girls of all ages! I asked if I could pray with her,"of course".

Philippians 4:7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard you hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
