And yes, I also find it funny that I got VIP anything.
I’ve got my hands full this weekend with a certain blond six year old. And, I have the best story to tell you about God going above and beyond:
A few weeks ago, as I was driving back home after spending a few days with MacKenzie, I started thinking about how I wished I could take her on a fun vacation. I kept wishing I could take her to Disney World, but didn’t give it too much thought as that isn’t exactly in this 23 year old’s current financial plan.
Flash forward to this weekend: someone blessed me with a weekend vacation for me and two guests. I loaded MacKenzie and one of our Starlite leaders up and we headed out of town for the weekend. Not only are we on a cheap vacation, but I was given VIP passes to over 30 different attractions in this town, with most of them kiddie attractions. We even got to have dinner at Hard Rock tonight — for free, of course.
But the sweetest part of this weekend happened on the way back to our hotel when MacKenzie tugged on my arm. I looked down at her and almost burst into tears when she said “Amy Beth, this is just like going to Disney World but better!”
It sure is, MacKenzie.
“God can do anything, you know — far more than you could ever imagine or guess or request in your wildest dreams!” – Ephesians 3:20a, MSG

That’s amazing Amy Beth! MacKenzie sounds like a great kid and you are doing a great job as a “parent-like/grown-up friend”!
