God Meets Our Needs

I just love how God meets our needs.

We don't have a car, but a friend has loaned us one for a few weeks. Well, on Sunday I went to drive to church and when I started the engine the gas light came on, indicating that we would run out soon. Well, we didn't have money for gas -- not even $5 -- and I still needed to be able to drive my kids to school on Monday and Tuesday and to go to work on Monday and we wouldn't have any money until Barry gets paid on Wednesday. I prayed for God to stretch the gas until we could get more.

Well, first he stretched it enough for the kids to get to school and me to get to work on Monday. Then when I was at work on Monday I got a text message from Barry to tell me that we had a check arrive for $75 that we had absolutely NO idea was on the way! So not only could I buy gas, but I could buy other items that were still needed but could have waited until payday. For example, we were out of regular milk but we had powdered to get us by, and so on. But even those needs were met!

Praise God!!!!!
