Just looking over the last few weeks there has been a lot of upheaval in my life. I was getting discouraged after this last trip to Asia. Long story short, I ran into some big disappointments while in the Philippines. I had set my heart on being there for a long time but I saw through certain circumstances there that it wasn't possible. When I came home, I got scammed out of $3500 trying to purchase a car. Then, just a week after that, my current car died on me.
I felt a little lost and discouraged. I was being motivated by my circumstances instead of God's heart.
Then God surprised me. While working at the Signs and Wonders children's camp this summer (see pictures), a lady came up and blessed me with $400! I was in tears. She told me that the Lord prompted her to bless me. Then about 4 days ago she called me from out of the blue. She said that she and her husband wanted to give their car to me! Unbelievable! God has been such a kind friend to me. Even when I was walking in the pain of my circumstances, he showed me that it's not about my faithfulness but about his. I know that he is with me, but when I actually feel him speaking to me in a tangible way it's breathtaking.
For me it's like walking through the rocky mountain wilderness of Colorado. When the fresh cool air fills my lungs I feel so alive. That's how his kindness makes me feel.
