Sometimes I feel overwhelmed with God goodness to our family. Kaitlyn's last MRI showed the cancer is gone. Praise the Lord! Her health has been our number one concern.
I'm remembering a song I was listening to on Sunday as I was getting ready for church. The song is "God Will Take Care of You". It's all about not being worried or dismayed. God will take care of us. I was deciding whether to tithe that Sunday because our finances have been so bad but I decided I was going to give God's His share. It's a scary thing because my husband still hasn't found a job and we spend very little if we do get money.
Please understand, I'm not saying it's okay to give money you don't have. If you don't have money in your bank account then it's is silly to write a "rubber" check.
Anyway, the girls needed something out of the car so when they opened the front door there were bags of groceries left by an unknown angel. She or he put an envelope in one of the bags with cash inside. Tim and I were flabbergasted but so very happy. Then we arrive at church and someone gave Pastor an envelope to give us that contained a grocery gift card! We were just blown away by this.
At times I feel like we don't deserve God's blessings but actually none of us on this earth does. So what do you do when God blesses you in an unexpected way? You pay it forward and bless someone else. We have extra laundry soap and toothpaste that we have been happy to share with others. It's really alot of fun and you feel good doing it.
I don't know what all the coming holidays will hold. I hope that we will be able to bless a family this year like we have been blessed so far.
My life as plain conservative Christian wife and mom. My prayer is that this blog will be a blessing to all who read it. I will share the good and the bad because the Christian life can be hard sometimes.
