poor unfortunate soul 2

God chooses to work in amazing ways. He allows people to be the instrument by which He blesses and encourages His children.

Not to long ago, my computor died without cause or explination. It was a bummer and a slight inconvienience, but not a detrimental loss. Just before Thanksgiving, my aunt let me know that she had a surprise waiting for me when I got home. I refused to guess what it might be--I tend to dream too high too often, and I did not want to prepare myself for a let down. Early in the afternoon the day before Thanksgiving my mom and I went to my aunt's house to drop off my dead computer--my uncle was going to see if he could fix it for me. Instead of fixing my computer, he gave me a new-to-me laptop! He had heard through one of my cousins that my computer had died and decided to give me one as a gift before my aunt even knew I had a need!

God is so good! I was truly able to say that I am thankful for the way He provides, especially when He chooses to work through those we love most, like our family.
