September 12, 2006 - Blessings of God

I have wanted to post about how much God has blessed us the last few weeks.  But just felt like I didn't have time.  Shame on me!!  I should always make time for sharing what God has done. 

 

A couple of weeks ago, our air conditioner went out.  And believe me it was hot in here.  We had one window unit in our bedroom and that was it.  My mother did provide two of her fans.  We lived in front of those fans.  The biggest problem with the air conditioner going out is we had no money to fix it.  My dh talk to a few people.  They would tell him things to do.  He would do it and nothing.  We finally got a person to come and look at it.  The news was not good.  We need to replace the whole unit.  YIKES!!!  That is some major cash.  What was we going to do????  Pray!!  And we did!!  Nothing!!  It went on for a week. Then another week.  By the end of the week, I was crazy.  I was just giving up on God fixing the problem.  Then it hit me.  I was praying wrong.  I was praying that God would do this or do that to fix our problem.  I needed to pray that God would do it His way.  So I did.  No matter what God had this problem and He was going to do it His way.  And everything was going to be okay, even if it meant that the air conditioner would not be fixed.  That was going to be a hard one, but I would do my best to be content. 

 

That was Sunday.  On Monday, my dh called me and told me that somebody was going to let us borrow the money.  He had not even ask the person.  Praise God!!  The answer had come.  That was what I thought.  God had another plan.  We waited another week for the man to come.  He didn't!  Labor day weekend came and went. On Tuesday I called another person and he was here within 15 minutes.  He looked it over and said that it was a very simple problem.  And he would have it fixed before he left.  Seems that the heat and air was on the same time.  He charged us very little to fix the problem. So little we could pay for it.  When I walked back into the house I did a Praise the Lord happy dance.  God had did it the best way, His way

 

Somebody told me the other day, they were sorry that I had to go though that.  I told her that I was not.  I learned some much during that time. That God loves us and He cares about everything in our life.  That we might have to go thought the fire but God would protect us the whole way.  That God's way was always the best way. 

 

Tonight I am sating here in a cool house.  So cool that I have to put my sweater on.  But I am enjoying my shivers.  God is good!!!!

 

Blessings!!!
Hope

I'm so glad God solved your problem - His timing, His way. It's a blessing to see God at work although we usually see it better after the situation is over! After I read your comment on my blog, it dawned on me that you are in North Carolina. My dad was born and raised there and my mom cooked for dad - you know, vinegar on greens, grits, black-eyed peas. At my grandma's home in Edenton, there was always a cruet of vinegar on the table. Funny how the memories are triggered, isn't it? Take care and enjoy your cool home - I know how hot and humid it can be in your beautiful state!

I just LOVE hearing how others go threw a situation and then they... let go and let God take over. I have been really learning how to do that and man... God Does it Better , doen't He ? I am glad things have cooled down for you and you will enjoy that coolness sooooo much more b/c God gave it to you (0:
