Why yes God, that IS a cool idea!

Don't you just love it when God plops really neat ideas into your brain? For me, they tend to be at seemingly inconvenient times. Hahah Apparently right before I'm drifting off to sleep is a time when God can get my attention the easiest, because that's when He tends to throw things out at me. I phrase it like that for a very specific reason, mind you, because it's not like the ideas just gradually or gently "come to me." Oh no, one second there's nothin' and then BAM! an idea smacks me right in the face, waking me from my near-slumber.
Well, that's what happened when He gave me the idea for a new event that my business training and networking company, ThriveWith5, is bringing to the table next week. Yes, next week.
I was laying in bed when all of a sudden He hit me with the concept... networking, business, prayer, prayer, networking, business... these three concepts should all meld together, never separate from one another. Why don't we have a networking event that is focused on praying for our businesses in addition to networking?! I know, totally brilliant right? It made me wonder why I hadn't heard of anything like that before. We have the annual prayer breakfast here in Amarillo but God said we are going to have a networking event each month that incorporates prayer.
So He gave me the name too...
Pray'N.
Like, prayer meets networking... Pray'N. Cool huh?
So I am completely excited about this event. So often we somehow manage to separate God and our businesses, when in reality, God owns our businesses! Once a month now we will meet for lunch, networking, and to gather together believing for blessings and favor for one another for our businesses in prayer.
Oh yes, I am stoked.
I hope the entire town can join us! (Hey, go big or go home, people!) 
Has God ever given you a completely awesome idea at some really random moment? One of those, you knew it had to be from God because there's no way you would've pulled that one out from anywhere-type things? They are my favorite kind!

Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if you knew
of any widgets I could add to my blog that automatically tweet my newest twitter updates.
I've been looking for a plug-in like this for quite some time and was hoping maybe you would have some experience with something like this. Please let me know if you run into anything. I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to your new updates.

Today, while I was at work, my sister stole my iPad and tested to
see if it can survive a forty foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation.
My iPad is now destroyed and she has 83 views. I know this is
completely off topic but I had to share it with someone!
