God Moment

Yesterday, as I was preparing to go for a walk with my friend Donna, I grabbed some change and put it in my pocket. I NEVER grab change and put in it my pocket before a walk because I like to tell the truth when people ask for money and I say I do not have any. I just felt like I needed to have some money today. We went on our walk and nothing unusual happened and no one asked for some change. On my way home I went past a tuck shop (small store) and thought about getting some fruit for the kids but we did not really need any so I kept walking home.

Once I was home, I hurried outside to take my laundry off the line. As I was busy doing that, Luky (the orphan boy we have hired to pick up litter) told me he would like to talk to me. He waited patiently for me to finish with my laundry and then told me that he is unable to cook the papa I gave him on Monday because he is out of propane and paraffin (something like kerocine I think). I began to be worried because I know we can not go out and buy him a tank of propane (don't have a car, etc). So I asked him how much it would be for paraffin and it sounded like he said R50 but when I asked again he was saying R15. I prayed that God would guide me wisdom and then I remembered the money it my pocket. I prayed there would be R15 in my pocket and so then I would know that I was suppose to help him more than just the food I have been providing each week. I pulled out my coins and sure enough I had R15 exactly. I just had to smile as I put it in his pocket. God guided me as I asked for His wisdom to know how much to help Luky and I really feel peace that our family is here to take care of him. God brought him to us for a reason and I love how obvious God's answers can be sometimes.
