provision


When Jordi and Drew lived in the middleeast, I was always so blessed to watch the Lord take care of them above and beyond their needs. I remember one time in particular, this sweet American couple who were living in Dubai treated Jord and Drew to a weekend of eating American food and a stockpile of fresh fruit (Jordi was pregnant and craving produce)... It was such a blessing to them! I thought at the time, "What a testimony to God's extravagant provision..."
Now that the budget is in full effect, Adam and I are experiencing similar extravagant provision from the Lord. Whether it is a freezer stocked by my dad with organic brats, chicken breast and cookie dough, a Sonic card in the mail from a dear friend from college, gift cards and fresh baked bread from Adam's mom, not one but two birthday dinners at restaurants this week, we are being well, very well, taken care. And we are abundantly thankful... won't you join us in praising the Lord for his extravagant provision?

in a season of also "cutting back" and having days of feeling like i don't get to do any of the "fun stuff" - i read your blog. thanks for the reminder that He gives us what we need and then blesses us extravagantly beyond that.
