Just proof that God is in the details (and so very good)…
A few days ago, we bought a van. It began as a simple phone call, letting us know that a woman we’d never met or heard of was selling her van at a reasonable price and in great condition with very few miles. And, it had air conditioning. –Something we’ve been doing without in our other vehicle.
To be honest, we’d recently (like, the day before) had a conversation about how we should trade in one of the SUVs for a van just so we could hold more kids, have an a/c, and save on gas.
Then, the phone call. After that? My parents loaned us the cash and gave us permission to put the vehicle in their yard to sell. Details.
TODAY, I accepted a job.
A job, which, had Steven not been fired in March, we would not had extra time - which means we wouldn’t have been involved with a certain fundraiser.
Which means I wouldn’t have walked into their board meeting.
Which means we wouldn’t have met.
Which means their hearts wouldn’t have chased me.
Which means they wouldn’t have offered me a job.
Which means I wouldn’t be working for a place that captures my heart and will allow me to be the woman God wants me to be, even if that includes ALSO being a stay at home mom to my two girls.
Praise God. He is so awesome. And, I am so thankful that He loves me enough to be concerned with even the smallest details of my life, as well as the seemingly bigger ones.
Welcome back!

Doesn’t it feel good to know someone is ‘in charge’ of it all and if we let Him, He will bless us beyond what we hope for.
