God's Promises

The other day we had a good spring downpour. When we went outside afterwards we noticed this:


The rainbow was framing our street. How cool is that?

While I was standing there taking a picture, God sweetly reminded me that He keeps His promises and we were doing His will. Just in the few months we've been here, He has kept several. One of the biggest ones has been "supplying our need." If you notice, the Scripture says "need," not want. However, there have even been "wants" supplied. He has been so good to us and I know He will continue to take care of us.

One of the ways He has supplied is by using our church people. They have blessed us over and over again by kind words (this is a big one for a couple who really doesn't know what they're doing), food poundings, money, fresh eggs every week, scrumptious baked goods, and much more. They truly are a blessing to all of us.

Sometimes this world can become so oppressive, depressive, aggressive, possessive, (just trying to see how many 'ive words I can think of) and, you know that God is up there still in control, but it's nice when he literally sends you a smile and confirms it.

Have a blessed weekend to all 2 of you! :)

Happy Birthday to our sweet, but ornery Weston! 
No, that isn't chocolate. ;)
