5 Loaves and 2 Fish
In the past week, a family of 3 has moved into our house, including a baby, and another dog, bringing the grand total of our house to 7 adults, 4 dogs, a cat, and a baby. The Lord’s hand has been all over this!
I can honestly say that I have seen Him move in mighty ways in the past week…and the motto (given by Nikki) is 5 loaves, 2 Fish…she wants to make a sign and hang it up in our house. We buy food on a 2 week basis, each taken various nights to buy and cook food for the house and we had only bought for 5 adults this week…and our food has lasted every night…sometimes with leftovers…the Lord is GOOD! And this is just a tiny, tiny piece of what He did this week….
- I quit a job, mother who just moved in got my job…
- Someone fell at work, and the dad who just moved in just happen to walk outside, probably saving his life…Praise the Lord! Servere concussion…he really could have died.
- Sam and I needed another space heater, Wal-mart was out of them, saw the Fox family (our excutive director and good friends of our) and they had 3 extra ones for us to borrow
- We didn’t have enough meals for the week..one short (we would have been fine, it’s just cool how the Lord made it work perfectly)…there was a formal fundraiser at work and the worked it so we could all (our entire house) attend…and some of the leftovers went home with us…
- Our schedules work so that the mom can work and we can, collectively, watch the baby…
And well, the Lord’s working with hearts on top of all of that…praise the Lord!
I’ve seen the Lord work in this house this week in some might ways. Prasie the Lord!
Can’t wait to see what He’s going to do next!!
