They don’t stop me in my tracks anymore—I always EXPECT them. Just at the right time, when you believe,…Godsends.
Call it strange, but I talk to Christ all throughout my day! I ask him about everything! Isn’t that what living the Spirit-led life is about? Letting him lead? HE proves to me daily that miracles don’t just happen in big things. Little things matter!
The red cardinal, a yellow butterfly, and the near miss of a car hitting me? It’s bigger than ME. Godsends come in many ways. An event? Situation? Have you experienced one recently?
Enjoy these Godsend moments!
“What do you all want to eat?” cousin Steph asked. She and her mom, Aunt Connie, wanted to send Door Dash to all of us after my hospital release. Within an hour there was a knock on the door. You should’ve seen our faces when we opened up the door to….Steph and the crew. They drove HOURS to surprise us! Talk about a Godsend!
This summer my precious niece once again attended Camp Barnabas. You have to visit this camp site– https://campbarnabas.org/about/#mission-values. The campers are all SO AMAZINGLY special. Down Syndrome, visual and hearing impaired, spina bifida, cerebral palsy, and many more developmental and physical challenges might keep these SPECIAL young people from attending other summer camps. Campers are introduced and walk down the center of cheering staffers! They come from all over the US to be challenged and grow in their faith. Friendships for life are formed as they serve, love, learn, and play. Check out Camp Barnabas and see why, since 1994, this amazing camp continues to make a difference in the hearts of SO MANY. What a Godsend!
Last week I took a slew of steps. Hobble, wobble, limp, and straighten. Grit can be a Godsend, too. By Sunday I mustered the willpower to drive a bit further to surprise my parents. It was NO coincidence their sweet neighbor stopped by to visit. She shared about the sad loss of her daughter to cancer 5 years. Our conversation revealed answers for questions that I’ve been asking God about. Earnest empathy. Immediate insight. They were all Godsends!
Another Godsend came in the form of a friend and her husband. It so happened they could accompany me on a long flight to celebrate my granddaughter’s birthday in Alaska. GODSEND!
Finding my keys (and train of thought 😉), the perfect parking spot, an unexpected surprise, running into a former friend, finding someone else to bless at just the right moment. Godsends! It’s not luck, coincidence, or magic. My miracle maker Lord is not in the business of doing what I want—but what I NEED. It means surrendering hourly, daily, weekly…putting down the devices and living intentional…expecting God moments at just the right time. With full intention and attention, an open heart with faith, you might start experiencing these incredible miraculous moments. Godsends.❣️
Do you know how loved you are?
You’re all Godsends to me.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart and Finley’s little paws.
Have faith 💚
