God is Sending Us to Ligonier!

The Lord gave us an incredible gift... On Thursday, I had my planner out and I was looking longingly at the postcard sent to us about the Ligonier Conference. I had just noticed that Al Mohler was going to be at the conference too... I had remembered John Piper, Ravi Zacharias, R.C. Sproul, John MacArthur and then I saw that Al Mohler was going to be there, too. So badly did I want to go... so little money did we have... we talked about how we might go... discussed all the other things that were calling for our money most urgently... then went on to the next thing. I put the postcard in my planner under the March heading and hoped that maybe in the next few months, the money would somehow be there.

Then on Friday, John called to tell me that a blogger friend of his had held a drawing and given away tickets to the conference... and we had been picked!! We truly cannot believe it... Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Tim Challies. Only God would know how to give a gift that we would love so very much!!!! I will be looking so closely to see what He has for us to learn there... surely something so very special to do this in such a special way!!!
