I have always wanted to wear hats but I don't seem to have a head for hats. I try them on and try to tell myself that I can do it, but I can't.
Though I can't wear hats and make any kind of fashion statement, I seem to have plenty of "hats" (metaphorically speaking) to wear every day.
Hat #1 - I am a wife to the most wonderful husband ever. I don't deserve him and I am reminded regularaly as I listen to women whose marriages are in trouble, that I am blessed! We are going strong after almost 37 years!
Hat #2 - I am a mom to 5 amazing children. Sometimes I wonder how this all came together and I have these kids that are out changing the world. Only God! I love my children and their wives/husband and their children. Family is important to us. Family times are a real event. (really you must be an Event Planner to pull off our family gatherings)
Hat #3 - I am a NANA to 15 (almost 17, we pray) beautiful grandchildren. Psalm 128 has been a very special passage to me as it reminds us that children and family are blessings directly from God's hand. It ends with verse 6 saying "May you live to see your children's children." I'm living it and I am in awe of God's blessings on our family. My one prayer is that I can know how to be the best NANA to all of these children.
Hat #4 - I am the Director of Pregnancy Services and Birthmother Counselor for New Life Pregnancy Center. I was called in an amazing way to New Life and I have worked there for 18 1/2 years. I'm an advocate for adoption and passionate about saving babies and ministering to women. I can't imagine not working there.
Hat #5 - I am a Pastor's wife. There was a time when I thought I would not want to be this. Thank God that He knows what He has prepared us to do. I love being a Pastor's wife and sharing life with so many special people. I love teaching God's Word to some very special women.
Hat #6 - I am a musician. I love to play the piano and I use this love to communicate my praise and worship to my Lord.
Hat #7 - I am ME - cindy seay. I am still trying to figure what that means exactly in light of the other 6 hats. Every day, if I listen, God reveals a little bit about his plan for me and what His design looks like for me.
I love my life - I love my family - I love my job and most of all I love my God!

I am Beth S, a pastor's wife in CC. Some of our members' daughter goes to your church and love you and the church. I love your blogspot. I also am involved in women's ministry and the local pregnancy center, presently trying to give it new life as it has declined and is in the re-birthing stage. Appreciate your prayers. I love your thougths and insights. Do you also speak at women's events, retreats, etc?
Blessings, Beth S
Beth S.
Thanks for checking out my blog. It is a small world isn't it? What church are you at?
Pregnancy Center work takes all that you have. I will be praying for you as you work to "revive" this ministry.
I would love to hear about your church and your Women's Ministry.
Blessings,
cindy
