Our prayers are always answered,sometimes not they way we would like(cause we think we know best).Prayers answered always I know this because God's word tells me so I choose to believe even when my feelings say different.But then there are those things that happen that can only be God......the little four year old boy had passed away after a hard battle with cancer, we all rejoiced that he was with our Lord but still hearbroken at the same time. I don't have alot of money but I have what I need and then some...my husband recently was saying i need to be more careful about giving away stuff(money too)but I have such a strong desire and joy too when I am shown those in need and am able to extend a hand(emptying my cup only leads to God refilling it anyway). But I, wanting to be respectful for my husbands wishes, was trying to be more discerning but I wanted to contribute to the fund to help his family with the funeral.....so I took my grandaughter to the movie after work as we were leaving the lot i saw in the distance( I was actually driving out) some thing on the ground(there were wrappers etc...)but i just knew what my eye couldn't really see.I told Clara sit still hon i have to get out theres a twenty dollar bill there.I stopped the car and walked around and picked up the folded bill,yes a twenty....so clara got to know and be a part of God's plan to give me my hearts desire,and I am so filled with joy to share these stories with any who also believe and desire to know Jesus.The amazing thing is Jesus not me there is nothing special about me on my own,it is all about Jesus :D

Elizabeth,

That's so awesome. How wonderful to be reminded that He cares, He sees, and He is faithful to His Word!

In The Pursuit of God, A. W. Tozer writes, "Jesus taught that He wrought His works by always keeping His inward eyes upon His Father. His power lay in His continuous look at God (John 5:19-21)."
