God Sighting

After finalizing the kitchen cabinets the next step was finding a contractor to install them. Even though we've lived here seven years we just don't know the community like we did back 'home'. Because of that I trusted the recommendation of the gentleman I ordered the cabinets from. 

 After meeting the contractor, M., for the first time I thought to myself, "This guy was a hippie when he was young." I liked him right away. 

Fast forward to the first time I walked in to the new house where they were tearing up the floors and I hear the radio full blast on the local Christian radio station. That definitely caught my attention and made my heart smile.

A few days later after Dwight and I had visited with M. about a few upcoming projects, we all began talking about the world and how important it is to have God in our lives. M. shared with us how different his entire outlook changed once he accepted Christ into his life. It was such a wonderful, refreshing thing to know that the contractor that was 'recommended' to us was a Christian man. 
I know that the recommendation for M. to be our contractor was not by chance but by God's doing. 
Thank you once again Lord for all you do for me. 
 

GOD SIGHTINGS

 Thank you Lord for this morning, my favorite kind of morning. Thank you for the gray overcast skies, the light mist that speckled my glasses as I walked in the quietness of the outdoors. The plants and grasses drinking in the light drizzle, the birds searching for unsuspecting worms.

Spider webs heavy with the weight of mist. Fall colors scarcely beginning. A perfect beginning to the day…. 

Thank you that I can walk this morning. Help me to remember the things I CAN do rather than dwell on the things I cannot do. Some days are tougher than others, when I let down my guard and want to throw a ‘pity party’ for myself. No pity parties today however. Today I will honor God by being the best me I can be.

In all things, give thanks. 1 Thessalonians 5:18
