Wonderful Blessings

We all know that God blesses us everyday with wonderful blessings whither it be smiles from our kids or a great hug from a friend or someone who listens to you. Sometimes God blesses us in big ways too. This week God blessed our family with a beautiful dining room table. We wanted one for our "nothing room" as we called it for the last two years, but there never seemed to be one that we loved for the price. So I began to pray and I asked people to pray too. God gave me a number- $500. God did this once before with our couch=) So I prayed and saw beautiful tables for $1000 or $750 or $600. Not the $500 that God had given me and what I had been praying for. This week I looked on Craig's List, which is a huge garage sale on steroids in my opinion, and found the table of my dreams for $600. Not $500. I am no negotiator so I called my grandparents who are amazing wheel and deal people. Grandma came with me to look at the table and worked her blessed skills and got me the table for $500 with matching curtains! Praise God! Lots of love to grandma too! I am so blessed by other people's talents! Reminds me of the doxology:

Praise God, from Whom all blessings flow;

Praise Him, all creatures here below;

Praise Him above, ye heavenly Host;

Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Amen.
