UPDATE: first week of the 12 days of christmas...

when we first started 'the 12 days of christmas' i was so excited that God was using our family to bless this homeless family, i had no idea the huge blessing that i would recieve. yesterday as we were dropping our meal off to them the middle boy ran up to me and gave me a huge hug, he then grabbed isaiah's hand and they took off. i was so blessed and filled with joy! then the husband told us that they wanted to join a bible study and start going to church. we haven't witnessed to them yet but we have just been showering them with love and friendship, and by God's grace Gods love has been shining through us. i feel so humbled and blessed that God is using us. THEN....remember how i said in my last post that i was hesitant at first cause we don't have alot of money right now, and how God told me HE doesn't need my money.....well, today he showed me even more that he is the ULTIMATE provider. two families came up to me today and gave me money and giftcards for gas and groceries!! isn't that awesome!! today at church our pastor was talking about mary and how God's plan made no sense to her, it was confusing and impossible. but she was obedient. that is how i feel right now. at first we were a little hesitant and even a little confused by what God was asking us to do. there were some things that happened that made us question if we were doing the right thing. but we put all that aside and just walked in obedience with what God was calling us to do despite our reservations. thank you God for blessing this family and for blessing us!
