Blessings

God is so very good. It hurt for me to tithe, to give 10% of my earnings but I did it anyway. You know what, God blessed me 3 times as much as I tithed! I sold a hand-knit scarf, got extra work and received gift money; all in the very same week. Praise God! I had no way of knowing how God was going to bless me. I just knew that I should give.

Praise God

I prayed at supper this evening for more work and after I finished my dinner, I received a text from a client asking me if I was available for a week of pet sitting. Praise God Almighty.

I have another praise. God gave me financial blessings when it looked like I wouldn't have enough money to go visit my family for Thanksgiving. He used my former mother in law to bless me. She gave me a check for taking care of her dogs when she hurt her legs and couldn't move. I wasn't expecting payment. Jesus keeps surprising me. I love being close to God. He loves us so very much!

Hawaii

Oh, how I miss this place and hope to visit again. It was an awesome time visiting my brother for his wedding day. It was so wonderful to see all of my siblings and to meet my sister in law. It has been 9 years since the five of us have been together. Hawaii, Hawaii when will I see you again? God only knows.
