I am convinced that my God will fully satisfy every need you have, for I have seen the abundant riches of glory revealed to me through Jesus Christ!
Philippians 4:19 TPT

I’ve been prompted to write a blessing book, recording times of miraculous provision over the years. I got out a journal one of my grandchildren had given me for Christmas a few years ago. It was relatively empty. I wrote the word “blessings” at the top of the page, then as so often happens, got distracted and walked away.

Two days went by, and the nudge came back, write the blessings down. So I picked up my pen and wrote till my fingers went numb. I’ll share a portion, and hopefully, it won’t be too long.

In the early 80’s, we moved to a small town west of Lansing called Sunfield. It was just before our oldest daughter started school and we wanted to raise the girls in the country.

Our landlords lived next door and we became friends. He had grown up in the house we lived in, and they were adding on an entire new structure where His grandparents lived.

Within 6 months, Walt lost his job when the Bakery he had worked at for 12 years closed down. It was the beginning of the recession, and there were no jobs to be found anywhere. Very quickly, we ran through our savings, and he took a part-time job down the road for a meat market working 20 hours a week.

Our landlord came to us and asked if we’d be interested in painting the exterior of the house we lived in for 6 months of free rent. That was the beginning of notable provision.

To be continued tomorrow. In the meantime, how about writing down some of your blessings so they’re not forgotten.
