THANKFULNESS

As I sit here tonight, and look out at The River, and watch the Painted Buntings at the feeder, I marvel at how gracious God has been to me. Even after all these months, I can look back and see how He has watched over me through David's the careful saving of money. Even though David didn't have a relationship with the Lord, God used him to take care of me, and through his careful financial planning, I am able to live comfortably. God knew this ahead of time, and still loved him enough to wait until a few days before he died to reach his heart.
What a compassionate God we serve! He paid my electric bill for a year. He paid for me to go back up to Cherokee, this summer. He wanted to make sure I was taken care of, after he died, and I reassured him that I would.
I can't tell you how blessed I have been by the body of Christ that has come out of the woodwork to help me. Neighbors; friends; deacons; elders;.....too many to name. God has sent me these angels unaware!
I spent thirty seven years with the only man who could put up with me, and God took that part and worked it together for good, right at the end.
He has now blessed me with the leftovers that David provided for me, making it possible for me to exist and be content!
Thanks be to God for His faithfulness!
