Great is His Faithfulness

Life has been so crazy-busy lately that my blogging has taken a back seat. I will try to get up to date but it might take a few days. Yesterday I was mulling over the verses, "It is of the LORD's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness." Just a few examples of His faithfulness in my life lately...not really big things, but they are big to me:) I like to go clothes shopping but I just really don't have a lot of time to do that. When I go, more often than not, I am discouraged by the lack of clothes that actually fit right. A friend came up to me a few weeks ago and asked if I would like to try on some clothes that she was getting rid of. Always willing to try......and they fit! It was like Christmas in my house the day I tried them on. Then a few weeks later, this same friend handed me a few more bags with MORE clothes, this time they were winter clothes (the first batch was more summer clothes). The Lord is so good! Most of them fit great! FAITHFULNESS #1. FAITHFULNESS #2 was seen yesterday. Anna's birthday is coming up so I wanted to go through my boxes of 4T clothes to see what she has and what I should tell people as ideas for her birthday. 4T was a "good" year with my older girls, I guess, because we have boxes and boxes of clothes for that size! She not only has all of her winter wardrobe, but has an over abundance. The Lord has sure been good to us. He has provided us with "above all that we could ask or think." Sorry for the rambling....it was just neat to see the Lord's hand in even the clothes that we wear.
More to come......
