When Life Gives You Lemons, Yes, Make Lemonade

God is simply amazing!

It had been a lemon of a week, what with my money being held hostage by a miserly company for which I had been doing some consulting. At the same time my friend Mary (name changed to protect her privacy) had had a pretty rough week herself.

Oddly enough at the beginning of our conversation she mentioned something about stem cells --and turns out a product that I had just ordered is one that came up for her this weekend. So you see, God already was in the middle of this conversation.

As the conversation progressed, we quite unexpectedly started to brainstorm on a project we both will become involved in.

You could literally feel the juices flowing as we started to scale up this project. We BOTH felt an excitement inside our bones that had been dormant lately due to disappointments and disallusions. More on this in a future post ...

But in the meantime, remember that when life gives you lemons make lemonade because God is in the midst of it anyway. In other words:

The one who calls you is faithful and He will do it (1 Thessalonians 5:24).
