Just have to share......

There are times when I want to laugh and cry all at once, because God is so real and present and involved in our lives. He cares about every detail, and about specific needs that we have. And yesterday was a prime example. If you are in construction right now, or even alive today for that matter, you know that our economy is struggling - there is not much work to be had out there. We weren't prepared to have had a baby in these winter months (to be paying the bills as if we had a baby I should say), at all for that matter, but especially financially. And now we are getting bills aplenty. On top of everything else, a financial stress. But God is walking us through the valley of the shadow of death, and we know He will take care of us financially as well. I tell you this because of what comes next. Yesterday I spent a considerable amount of time on the phone talking to the places where our bills came from and was working out details with them. I went to get the mail and in there was a $ gift from a friend that had no idea of our need. We see him 2x a year to be exact. His letter was simple. " The Lord Jesus laid it on my heart to send you this." Can you believe it???? Jesus told him that we had a need, and he responded to Him! God cares about every need and has already gone ahead to help provide for those needs. Brian and I just came before the Lord and laid it out. "You know our needs, and we know that You care and You WILL provide." And He did. In His Word He tells us that He will provide for us, that if we look to Him, He will answer. And He did and will continue too. Praise His Name! If you have a need today, bring it before our Lord, the one who loves you and cares about every detail. And trust Him to provide. He is THE Provider!
