God WILL Supply EVERY Need

The $12 one...

...the free one.

While at the lake last week, we took a walk and stopped at a small garage sale. In front of the other items for sale sat a "free" bicycle and a skateboard. I helped myself to the free bicycle thinking it might be nice to have when the grandchildren came to visit.

When I arrived home the following afternoon, my daughter called and said, "Mom, would you keep an eye out for bicycles at garage sales? Both of our kids' bikes were stolen last night." I KNOW it wasn't coincidence that I picked up that free bicycle! I went a'saling and found a second bike for $12. My husband got busy and painted the free one. By the time our grandchildren came, the newly painted one was drying and ready for riding the next morning.

Another provision arrived this afternoon. In bags on the back porch were beets, green beans, squash and kohlrabi - fresh from the garden of generous friends.

My God WILL supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. To our God and Father be glory forever and ever. Amen. Philippians 4:19-20.

Plant Sale

Scenes from the plant sale down the street from me....
At their invitation, I took some of my "yard art"
to see if it will sell.
The setting is beautiful...a large yard/garden
with heirloom plants and an old wooden shed.

Up and Running

We moved furniture yesterday to make room for the completed project. Here it is - repaired, painted, installed and lit! All in time for our Ladies' Bible Study last night.

RESCUED AND RESTORED

While out driving last week, Good Husband and I stumbled on a pile of junk awaiting trash pickup. I THOUGHT I saw a fireplace mantel. We stopped, backed up - and sure enough! In not-so-good shape, but all there down to the logs and light bulb! We strapped it onto our car (it wouldn't fit in the trunk) and traveled on. Yesterday, GH put in some major time repairing some of the faults, shaping a new piece of trim, and fixing the electrical cord so that the fake fire could burn.

I couldn't wait for the finished product to show you THIS much....It is primed and will be painted to fit into our eating area. We have selected the spot.

I can't help but think of how Jesus "rescued" me! His work is not finished. He's STILL working on me! On the basis of His Word, I know he has selected "the spot" for me! What a thought to think that He can't wait to see me there. I have been rescued and restored. I am a new creation in Christ Jesus! (2 Corinthians 5:17)

He is preparing a place for me - and me for that place!
