My husband and I would like to share with you how wonderful God has been to us. He is there for us all the time, but sometimes it is just so plain and so phenomenal, that you are just stunned at how simple God makes it look.
After living in one place for 37 years, we had decided to move from a farm into town. From a family of seven children, sixteen grandchildren and three great grandchildren, our barn became storage for family and friends. Well, the day arrived to leave our home. We had been packing and sorting for about three months, and on the day to leave I was very upset and frustrated. I phoned Dawnie (one of the new owners) to tell her it doesn't look like I have moved anything, and I was very emotional. She said don't worry about it, it will work out.
Prayer is what I needed to do, so I asked God to please send someone to help us move all this stuff. We had no idea how or who we could get to give us a hand. It just looked so impossible, but we knew that God could do anything. As we were rushing to pack as much as possible in the last hour before we had to leave, along came Dawnie and Ben, the new owners, and said, “Don't worry we will unload all our things onto the lawn and tarp it, and load all your things on the truck we rented and take yours to town to unload it when we take the truck back.”
It was an hour drive to town from there, so they spent a few hours by the time we got things loaded and moved. When we tried to pay them for all their time and part of the truck, they said absolutely not, they wouldn't even consider it. Not only that, they let us come back and get other things we didn't get, but Dawnie even brought two or three car loads to town for us in her car. We just want to give God all the Praise and Glory for how quickly He moved on the scene. We just marvel every day and thank Him for His goodness and mercy and loving kindness.
God Bless you.
