Where have I been...............



Boy, just when you think your the best thing since sliced bread...........I'm humbled!

We, and another wonderful lady bought a box of food from Angel Food, to help a family that we know are in great need, at this season in their life. Just last week my dear hubby sent down some extra toilet paper, ketcup and mustard. They had just ran out of tp and the last of the mustard had been used making sandwiches that morning. Knowing God, it didn't surprise me, but just put me in that 'ahhhh' moment of how AWESOME he is! If we had sent it early, no big deal, and God never shows up late, just at the time you need him! I waved off their thanking us over and over and said we were just being obediant.

Fast-forward 24 hours and I receive a phone call from someone in our neighborhood (whom I don't know) who likes doing yardwork and wants to teach her young children the theory of serving others. My hubby has a heart condition, and I have many chronic health problems also, and to be very honest, yard-work and gardening has never been a joy to us....just a chore--that we always put off way too long. I'm humbled! HUMBLED. Five families showed up and I don't recognize my yard!

I went from the pedlestal of the giver to my knees as the humbled receiver in just hours! God amazingly and oh so gently taught me to accept the thanks of others in the future.

My God is so amazing!

If you would like to know him, open a Bible and this Sunday....find a good Bible-based church and praise him--he'll like that!

Most of these thoughts and words are not mine. I have the Holy Spirit alive in me....and often have no idea what is going to be written until I read it as it is being typed. It's awesome!

Do you believe in a higher power?

I love my life...most of the time. Daddy always said, these are the cards you've been dealt, no re-dos, do the best with what you've got! I sure did love that man!
