He hears me

Wow, I'm sorry its been so long since I have updated on here. Life has been BUSY! Having Bonita and Linda around is full of endless blessings, but leaves very little blog time in the day. I will update a lot more soon, but I wanted to share a fun story with you.

On Wednesday, the girls and I spent the day at Dorney Park with several of our friends (including my current roommate Ashley and one of my favorite kids in the world, I will call her Bella...spanish for beautiful). :) They were calling for rain on Wednesday and so on our way to the park we decided to have a conversation with Jesus about the weather.

The girls and I asked Jesus to have it rain around 5:30 or 6, but have it only last about 15 minutes or so. We figured this would probably be late enough that most people would just decide to go on home. Then, when the rain stopped, the rides could open again and we would get to ride them all without many lines thanks to everyone going home.

We got there as soon as it opened and spend the morning in the water park, and had a BLAST. Around 2 or so we had lunch and went back in to ride all the roller coasters. Then, at 5:35 a sudden down pour hit and all the rides were shut down. We watched as a massive number of people left the park and went home. The parking lot emptied pretty quickly.

After about 15 minutes, the rain stopped and the rides opened again. We spent the rest of the day (we stayed until closing at 10!) riding all the rides we wanted to, as many times as we wanted to because there were no lines anywhere. It was AWESOME!!

If God hears, and answers, the silly requests I throw at Him, how much more does He hear and answer to the deep desires of my heart?!?
