First of all, thank you for taking time to post all those wonderful verses in yesterday's post. Wow!
I was talking with my friend, Esther, the other day regarding these discussions about God's provision. She was so excited to share a recent experience she'd had at a Starbucks drive-thru.
When she got to the window, the barista informed her the person in front of her had paid for her coffee. Touched by this act of kindness, Esther decided to pass the blessing on to the person behind her.
And then that person did it for the next person.... who did it for the next person... who did it for the next person... who did it for the next person.
Esther is friends with the manager of that Starbucks who later told her 52 cars in a row kept the blessing going.
52 cars y'all!
A silver lining in the midst of tough economic times. And it's not the coffee they bought that encourages me. It's people's hearts made tender in the midst of brokenness.
Sometimes WE are God's provision.
So, how about this- look to say yes to His invitation this weekend.
Despite what you're going through.
Despite your own lack.
Despite your own distractions.
Say yes to God by giving someone else a little of your time, your emotion or your finances. Then watch God working through you and in you.
Wait... don't stress. You won't have to try to figure out or manipulate something into being with this. God will make all the arrangements. Just live this weekend in great expectation of experiencing Him.
Be His provision~
