An Amazing God

Well I'm pretty excited and i will tell you why so you can be excited too!!! About a month ago i was talking with a friend and they were just sharing in how they were struggling financially. Later that week i was just really wanting to do something to help them so i called another friend of mine and told her that i wanted to do something to raise some money for this family. She had also been thinking of this friend and wanting to help in some way as well. WOW!! Totally God. So we decided to have a huge church yard sale. That sure did turn out to be a HUGE project but we were up to the task!!! The big day was this past Saturday so we were up at the church everyday last week setting up, sorting and pricing. We had so many people donate and help us get ready for this big event, it was such a blessing to see all these people in our church step up and help serve. It was a week that turned out to be an incredible blessing for me and my relationship with God. There is just something about serving alongside people, it brings you closer together and closer to God. SUCH A BLESSING!!!! Sooooo the sale was a huge hit!!! After much work, sore backs, and late nights we raised a little over $1300 for this family in need!!!! It was so amazing to call this friend and tell them the gift we had for them. God is such an amazing provider!!!! Its so exciting to see how He works and even when you seek out to serve someone else and meet their needs, God meets yours as well, by bringing you closer to Him and others. What an Amazing God we serve!!!!!!!!!!
