I've been praying for my baby sister. So, I was grateful to get a phone call on Wednesday asking if she could stay with me because she was gonna be in town. She got here on Wednesday, went to look for a job on Thursday and they told her to come to work on Monday!!! THANK GOD!!!
Now, we just need to find her a place to live because she can't live with me and a cheap motel would cost a lot of money. So, I'm praying that God come through. I can't bear to see my baby sis sleeping in a car. I know God will come through.

2am Phone Call
I am a member of the leadership team at my church. I feel privileged to be apart of this group of people. Therefore, we meet once a month and my pastor teaches us about leadership. However, since my pastor will now starting a church in Florida, he has decided that it is a good thing that we meet once a week until the end of the year.
We met on yesterday and after the meeting we had a "come to Jesus" meeting because October is National Clergy Appreciation Month and only 5 leaders have given gifts that have been asked. After that we met with the CEO of the NP that I volunteer at, so I didn't get home until after 11pm. I was so tired, but I was also a little wired, so I read my Bible and didn't fall asleep until after 1pm.
Around 2am, I received a phone call. At first I was a little confused because I thought I was dreaming. Then the phone rang again and I answered. It was one of the tenants in the other building. She was upset because she had just gotten home from grocery shopping and upon entering the floor she smelled a strong odor. She had a person with her and the person stated that she knew the smell and that it was the smell of someone smoking crack.
I told the tenant that I would be there in a minute.
I got to the building about 10 min later to an odor in the hallway, but my nose is not very sensitive, so I could not identify the smell. It wasn't a bad odor, it was just an odor. I called the police because I had no other choice.
The police showed up at around 3:20am. I was exhausted. We walked through the building, but could not detect any smell. He let me know that I could call the police again if there are any other reports, but there was no evidence, so there was not much that could be done.
I thanked them for their time and went back to my apartment. I was exhausted but I couldn't immediately fall asleep. So it was after 4am before I fell back to sleep and it was at 6:30 am that my alarm went off. I'm exhausted. I have to go to church tonight, but I don't know if I'm gonna make it. I'm so tired.

I didn't know Steve Jobs Died
I turned on the www this morning to an article on Steve Jobs on msn.com. However, I just blinked past it and went on about my day of teaching. I just got onto yahoo.com and Steve Jobs is everywhere. WHAT??? I read the article and didn't realize until the end that they were talking about him in past tense. WOW!!!
I've never been a fan of the apple computer, but if I had enough money, I would have an iphone and an ipad.
I pray peace to his family.
