God is so good to me. I am overwhelmed with outpouring of help that has come our way this last week. What a difference a new take on things can bring.
Yes I complained, and yes it was not taken well; rightly so. But God used all that to show me MY attitude needed adjustments too. I was not looking at my situation a place to gain a different perceptive from, yet I could have been and would have been so much more at peace if I had. If I had taken the time on my hands to focus on the needs of others more than my own pain, I would not only been less isolated, but may have been able to help someone in the process.
Ya I know, some of you will say what I have been writing was helpful and I don't want to argue that point but I could have been less self-centered about all of it. I could have been a bigger help.
Yet God does not revel in His being right; He listens to the cry of the lonely and broken of spirit and He sends help. He hears the cries of the needy and meets her need. Praise His Holy Name! Great is His Faithfulness!
I was working on some stuff on the computer this afternoon and the dogs started barking furiously; I hushed them about 3 times before I finally got up to see what all the commotion was about. I looked out just in time to see a truck I recognised driving away. Curious as to what the person had been doing here I went outside to find a brand new lawnmower sitting in the driveway! I called the persons spouse and inquired and offered to repay them and was told "Enjoy; it is a gift from God". So once again, Thank You, God, please bless these and the many other ministers of Your love and kindness this week.
