Woman says thank you for answered prayers

I am so very honored to be a tiny part of CVC, that I would probably wash the floors if anyone asked. CVC has touched my heart, my mind, and my soul in ways that I could never have imagined. When I walk into the church, a huge weight is lifted off my shoulders. A sigh of relief, I am home. Thank you for not pushing me, but allowing me in my own time to find my way. Because of Raise the Bar, I prayed, and He answered a few prayers for me.
The first one is, my daughter is now talking to me about God and I had some answers for her. I was praying and asking God to give me the words and He did.
The second and the prayer was the selfish one, I asked God if He could make it happen for me to move closer to my family and out of this horrible place I live. I have to walk 29 stairs to get to my apartment (no elevators). With me having MS, it has been a struggle. This week I got the good news, the place I wanted to move to in Medina is accepting my application and I go on Tuesday for an appointment with them, I have been on a waiting list forever.
I wanted to also tell you I have Raised the Bar in my life and I thought I would share this with you because CVC has taught me so much.
I read my Bible everyday, sometimes 2-3 times a day and I enjoy it. I read longer, I have index cards and write the scriptures that pop off the pages at me.
I also thought that volunteering was a form of Raising the Bar, besides the fact that I am honored to be there at CVC.
I also have committed myself to giving, and although I am very poor,and it won't be an amazing amount, it is a start in the right direction.
Am I a better person today than I was a year ago? Yes! Thank you!
