Blessings upon Blessings

Dear Friends thank-you so much for hanging in there with us. I know many times it was your love and prayers that carried us through.

My friend Karen at http://ascrapebookofinspiritation.blogspot.com
Told me to believe a miracle was coming. It did come in so many ways and forms. So many of you have and have written to say you were wanted to help. You can never image what this means to us.

Monday morning after the interview with our daughter the local newspaper ran its story. A man called the children's school and asked the principal to find a House in the school district. That he would pay in advance the deposit and 1 years rent. PRAISE OUR GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

She found the apartment yesterday so very nice . My husband and my self went and had the utilities turned on.

She gets the keys this afternoon and can sleep there tonight. She has beds coming.

So as I said we are being blessed.I believe allot of it has to do with my praying friends here in blog land. Your are the sweetest and best ever.

Oh Mary! I've been such a bad blog friend and haven't been able to visit in awhile. I had no idea what your family has been going through! But it makes me so joyous to know all the miracles that God has provided during this crisis. I will keep you all in my prayers sweet friend.

Hugs!

Thank you Lord that Mary's family was spared. Thank you for the gifts of friendship and love that is being shown to them. Surround them all with your love and protection.

Amen

Mary,

Thank God from whom all blessings flow, for He is so faithful to give us the necessities of life. I've prayed that your daughter and the children would be abundantly blessed. Tonight I will say a prayer of thanks.

I'm sure there's a lot more help coming. I'm sorry for the loss of the scrapbook, for it is something that can never be replaced. What a great idea to make your daughter a "Blessings Scrapbook," so she can look back and be thankful.

I'm continuing to pray.
Blessings,
Mary

They surely had a guardian angel to keep them safe from the fire. They are blessed. And continue to be blessed by those around them.

What wonderful news Mary. It is always so uplifting to hear there are angels walking amongs us - or in this case making phone calls and renting houses.

This is my first visit to your blog because I heard you needed prayers for your family. Tears came to my eyes as I read how God has answered your prayers.There are some GOOD PEOPLE in this big world that God loaned us for awhile. I will pray for you and your family.
God Bless,

Dear Mary,
Amanda texted me and said that they were in their new place. I want to hold onto this story forever, because it truly feeds our faith. Jesus always does come in at the final hour, just like our Beloved hero each and every time. I heard in a sermon once that when adversity hits us hard, we must understand that this is fertile ground for miracles. Because without adversity there are no miracles.

I am shouting to the Lord that you and your family have the favor of God.

Blesssings, Karen
