So, I brought one pair of shoes with me from Georgia- some dress boots. And I planned on buying some more winter ones while I was here. Well, I thought I'd have some time before it snowed to do that... but I was too late! It's already snowing in Eastern WA where we are heading on Monday. So, I planned to shop for some boots today, but ran out of time because we needed to meet some friends and then go speak at a home church.
Well, we went to the home church and had a great time. They let us speak for over an hour all about Georgia and what we do there. They were so interested with so many questions and it was so encouraging!
Then after we finished a man came up to me and this was the conversation:
(man): umm, what size of shoe do you wear?
(me): 38
(man): in American size...?
(me): oh yeah, umm... size 8.
(man): do you need some boots? I have 3 pairs of women's boots in the car, and one of them is size 8...
(me): (slightly in shock)... oh wow, yeah! I was wanting to buy some and didn't get the chance to today, so that would be really nice...!
The man brought the boots and get this: they were EXACTLY like the boots I was looking for!!! Plus they are perfectly my size and already water-proofed and everything. And he had no idea before that that I was even looking for shoes.
Is that not like incredibly amazing???????
And that's not to mention all the money that people have just randomly given us, gift cards and movie tickets... money for coats and shoes... really amazing stuff guys.
God is incredible.
His kindness leads us to repentance.
His kindness draws us towards Him.
Let's run.
Wim and I- new coats and new shoes and a huge deposit in the "trust fund" that God provides for His children!
