Hello friends,
Today, we made a choice. We chose not to look at our bare shelves with fearful hearts. We chose instead to look to the Lord. It is all to easy to become fearful when looking through the eyes of a human. But we chose to look through the eyes of the Lord. And what did we see?
Well, I am glad that you asked.
We saw an opportunity for God to show Himself faithful once again. We saw an opportunity for Him to be glorified. He is good. He is right on time. He is faithful. He is trustworthy. And He is immeasurably kind.
Over the past few weeks, we have been operating on a day to day basis regarding assistance. Times are tough. The needs of the community have increased dramatically, while donations have been slow. We have literally been provided "our daily bread" time and time again.
Today, we opened with no money and very, very little food. Then it happened. A check came in that was specified for the purchase of food!! We sent several volunteers out on a "food run." They returned with enough to allow for this day. A little while later, a kind woman came in and asked, "What can I do for you? My family has been blessed this year and we want to help." She provided the resources that sustained us for this day.
We are so thankful to the Lord. We remain in awe of His working among us. We give Him the glory for ALL these things and more.
Yes indeed, as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD!!!!!
In Christ,
Laura
