what an amazing God we serve...I am no longer concerned with myself but instead with helping others

I have completed today's stepping stone and reached out to several people

I found a coin board that belongs to my ex gf on a shelf collecting dust....and It occurred to me what I needed to do..So I decided to complete this coin board for her with the exception of 1 coin and attach the following note to it for her:

When I seen this half completed project sitting on the shelf collecting dust,It
occured to me, that this is similar to a journey in life that we all have to undertake

we start out strong and with the best of intention eager to complete it and marvel at
its completed glory..But then something distracts us and
we lose our focus and interest and put it on a shelf to be forgotten and collect dust

Then Someone steps in and they decide they Are going to help you to
complete your journey without you even knowing about it because they want to see you
succeed so badly and they don't want to distract you by letting you know what they are doing

So they set out and find all of the coins and then its comes down to the last coin to be pressed into place,And it is realized that it is no longer their journey to complete but yours to finish, and they Hand it over to you so that you can complete your journey and have closure

As you can see there is 1 coin left to complete this journey. this is not my journey to complete for you,But because of love and eagerness to see you succeed,,the Journey has been partially finished,Give it all to God and he will lead you to that last coin and you will have closure on this jouney, so that you may start a new one and receive all of the
blessings that God has meant for you.

I'm sure the note will be edited many times before It is time to hand it over to her..but the point is there

I gave everything to God and if its his will then I will be the one to give her the final coin on our wedding day..But if not then it is her journey to complete..Either way GODS WILL IS GOING TO PREVAIL AND I AM GOING TO FOLLOW EXACTLY WHAT HE WANTS..NOT WHAT I WANT..NO MATTER HOW MUCH I THINK I NEED IT...ONLY GOD KNOWS WHAT I REALLY NEED..AMEN

have a great night everybody..Love you all

thank you Ruth..I feel at peace with God and I am using this little project also a test of my patience..Because it isn't going to be easy to find the last 4 quarters..But when God is ready for it to be complete...It will be Done by his clock..NOT mine
