"One of the most important things about my journey to finding Jesus and the powerful work He did by sending me my mentor of 35 years, Dolores, was to grow me into the woman He wanted me to be. I’d like to let others know that even if we feel we have no place in His kingdom, He has a different idea and to Him we are all worthy no matter what we come from, or how we have been taught, that we are not throw away people." Laura Padgettt

You are in for a treat when you listen to Laura's Testimony! Laura humor and gladness brings joy to those that have the opportunity to meet her. She shares her story of growing up and feeling unwanted and finding the love of God through a mentor named Delores. Laura has turned her grief into joy, and uses her story to bless others thorugh speaking, writing, and dancing. She even spent time in an Elf suit, raising up other elves to bring joy into the world. 

Yes, pain can often be masked by humor, and we need to be careful not to hide the pain. So if you know of anyone in your life that is constantly up and seems to hiding pain, pray and see if there is something that God would have you do to help. Because our Nation, really the world, had been shut down for so long, there may be many hiding in homes that are hurting. Reach out, be a good neighbor. Knock on the door, drop off some toilet paper on the porch and give them a smile from a distance. 
As I spoke with Laura over Zoom about a month ago, it was at the beginning of the fire season of 2020, and within a few weeks, most of the west half of the country is on fire. The smoke was at Laura's place in Colorado and mine in North Idaho as we spoke. We are remembering all of those brave souls out there fighting the fires, and praying for them and their families at home, waiting for their safe return. 

This Podcast will air on Momentswithmoni.com Ep#56 on Friday Sept 18th at 4:00 am Pacific. If this episode brings you joy and laughter, consider sharing it with a friend, neighbor or family member to brighten their day as well. Thanks for listening.
