Hi everyone, welcome to Add Home with Sally. I'm Sally Clarkson and I have the biggest

privilege in the world to be with so many friends from all over the world who join me every

week to listen to my stories, inspiration, biblical encouragement. And I am just so glad

that you're here today. Thanks so much for joining me.

Hello my friends. I hope this podcast is finding you well. I have been quite ill this week.

I got home from my conference last week and within 24 hours I had a really terrible

kind of blast of me for several days, respiratory illness and I am getting better now. But if

I sound like a frog it's because that's how I sound in real life. But I wanted to go

ahead and get a podcast done because I hate to miss. I just hate to miss. I've been so

amazing lately at how much all of us in this arena are friends and like-minded in our

hearts. I was so touched by the many issues I heard when I was at the Walden Free Conference.

And I thought I just want to be that voice every week that lets you know that I'm

praying for you and that I sympathize with you and that I've been thinking about a few

things that have encouraged me and I hope they encourage you. I am ridiculous. I'm getting

ridiculously excited about going back to Oxford in a couple of days to see all of my

sweet ones, including my precious grandchildren. And I just enjoy being near all of them.

They make me happy and they give me hope and I am so grateful that I get to be in their

lives and I want to leave memories in their little brains of how much their Queenie loved

them. But anyway, I just have a really fun ending to this podcast today. Sometimes we

think that we- is anything happening? Does it matter what we're doing? Is God really

listening to us? Is he at work? And the story at the end of the podcast today is a way

that God was working through all the years and using the fish and loaves that I gave him.
