Amazing!
I like this one! God comes thru always and in amazing ways! I have wanted to get my carpet cleaned for about a month..I was going to go rent one of those rug doctors in a week or so and do it myself. Well, yesterday, I get a knock on my door and this girl is standing there. I said "hi" and she said "Would you like to get your carpet cleaned for no charge?" Of course I was truly amazed as I said, "for real, for free?" She said "yes, her company Kirby vacume cleaner company, was doing free carpet cleaning demonstrations (no obligation), to show how their product worked. If we liked it, we could buy it or just tell people about it, by way of thanks they would clean our carpet. Of course they wanted to sell their product, but they were all very nice and no pressure sales, and they actually did a wonderful job cleaning my carpet! Praise the Lord! God is Amazing!

I Met a Boy
He looked like an average boy of 12. But as I began talking to him, I felt there was something different about him. He was telling me about his hopes and dreams for the future; what college he would be going to, and a big "dream" he had (to win the Monster Truck competition) and then his "real" job goal..(to be a mechanical engineer). As I listened to him talk with such positive determination, I saw the glow of pride on his Mother's face and felt her joy. He seemed pretty extraordinary for a boy his age. As we talked a few minutes more he told me he was a cancer survivor. (showed me the scar that ran up his neck to the back of his head). He was diagnosed when he was 5 and been thru numerous surgeries and treatments. I cannot explain to you how I felt. I only knew that at this very moment God was blessing me by bringing this little boy into my life to share with me. I saw what complete trust and faith in God could do for someone if they choose to follow God. I have NO doubt that this little boy will accomplish his dreams and goals. I Praise God for bringing him into my life as he is such an inspiration to "living". He will forever be in my heart and prayers. PTL

Angels watching over Me
I had a job in Phoenix over the weekend. I had left my glasses at home, and I did not realize how badly I needed my glasses for driving at night. I got off work after 8 pm, so it was pretty dark out. As I started to drive out of the parking lot, I realized, "wow, I can't see!" Everything was blurry(especially after being under florescent lighting all day). I tried not to panic, just thought to myself, "I will drive slow", but I had 30 miles to go to my daughter's house where I was staying and all the Memorial holday traffic was "not" driving slow. First thing I did was miss my entrance to the freeway that I needed to be on, it came up so quickly and I could not read the sign until it was too late. So I proceeded to drive in the wrong direction, all the while, not being able to even read the street signs. The glare from all the cars headlights really complicated things, and I contemplated calling my daughter and telling her I needed her to come get me. I said "Lord, help me to see, help me to get home!" I began singing all my favorite Christian songs to Jesus. I managed to find my way back to the interstate and all of a sudden I felt such peace. It was as if there was someone else driving my car. (it felt almost as if I were to let go of the steering wheel, I would still be sailing on..which of course I didn't do) :-) As I drove down the freeway, there was a lot of traffic, but none of it seemed to be around me. When I needed to change lanes, there was always a large opening for me. No one followed me to close, or cut me off because I was only doing the speed limit (not going 10 or 15 mph faster as alot of the traffic was doing) :-) I really felt God's Presence, as if He had set Angels about my car to keep me safe. I arrived at my destination safely and completely at peace, with total gratitude for God and all His blessings and "wonder" PTL

Oh this is amazing! PTL :-) I LOVE to sing and play my songs on my keyboard. I have this really big bush outside my window where I play. Just now as I was singing and playing, I realized that these little sparrows would fly to this bush and start "singing" with me! There is about two or three of them. They sit on the branches and face the window looking right at me as I am singing and they start chirping! I am not kidding! I could barely sing, as my smile turned into outright laughter! PRAISE God for ALL His creation! :-)

Well God just blessed me in a major way! PTL I was just starting out on my evening walk(heading up the hill) and one of my neighbors was coming down the hill. He is an older gentleman, I hadn't seen him in quite a while. I only talked to him a few times when I'd seen him over a year ago. Then one day his house was up for sale and he was nowhere around. I didn't know what had happened. About a year passed and then the for sale sign was down and I thought "well it must have finally sold".. Now(all of a sudden) I see him, coming down the hill ! I said "well Hello, there!" I finally found out his name.."Michael" Turned out Michael had a stroke about a year ago, and then went to live with his children in California.(Michael's wife died many years ago). They told him he would never walk again, as he has suffered from diabetes since childhood and they said the stroke "finished him off" for walking. (He only has two toes left and uses a cane). Well here he comes walking down the hill(and quite a big hill at that!) and says "well I made it up and back!" I said "Praise the Lord!" Well we talked a bit and our conversation turned to "faith" and God and he said " You know, I don't know why God hasn't taken me yet"...I said "well, it's so you can Praise God and give Glory to Him, of course!" He got tears in his eyes..my God, I nearly broke down..I asked him if he had a bible and he said he did, but the writing was too small, he couldn't read it. I told him I would get him one with bigger writing, as I know they must have them..I felt SO VERY blessed as I touched his shoulder and told him to have a beautiful evening. Praise the Lord!

PTL!! I work in a hospital, and I had an experience today which made me realize how Truly Blessed I am to have my son!This one lady had her 3 1/2 yo grandson with her. She said Herself, and her mother, were raising the boy, because the parents starved the boy and broke his arm. Jesus saved him! PTL

God Blesses Everyone
Blessings come to everyone, big and small if you are just aware. By sharing all the wonderful blessings God bestows on you and giving Glory to God, it brings joy and awareness(to all) of how wonderful God works in our lives. Praise the Lord (PTL) in all things.
