God is so amazing. Here we are. In a new home. With beautiful landscaping. A garden my husband just planted. A family twice as large as we had imagined. My husband once told me he always felt that he was supposed to be rich...we are rich in so many ways. Financially we have been blessed to have enough, even when our bills piled up -we had enough... and at times in our lives, we have been blessed with more than enough.
Health-wise, we have definite struggles, and yet we have enough. We have what we need. Enough to keep us dependent on the Lord, and enough to enjoy each other and the blessings God has given us.
God has always provided for all of our needs. I am in a place today where I am just aware of all the many, many ways that God has abundantly cared for our little family.
Today, I took my girls to get haircuts. We all got our hair 'did' and enjoyed the time out together. My hubby spent some time working in the garden with all of his kiddos today. It cost him physically, but he is pleased to have accomplished his goal for getting the garden put together and the irrigation taken care of.
We have many areas of life that are far from perfect. Far, far from ideal. And yet, if I take that step back and just look at all going on in our lives, God is there. He's not just there, He is active and very much involved in every part of our lives. I only hope I can give Him the glory and honor He deserves with my life and all He has given me.
