God Knows What You Need

There are times in each of our lives that rain falls, hard times come and it helps to reach out to our friends and to our God for a little support. This is the place to express those needs, concerns and situations so others in the AAPK family can keep you in their prayers.

God Knows What You Need

Post by dlr110 »

I am continually amazed at how God works things out in our lives. He knows what we need and what we don't and He cares about each one of us.

In going through my late mother in laws belongings there was a telephone for the hard of hearing that typed the words of the caller on a screen. Also there were two pairs of perfectly good hearing aids. Without knowing of these items my daughter told us about a lady in her church that was just told she was loosing her hearing, but the lady did not have the money to buy hearing aids. We gave both items to the lady.

A young girl in our neighborhood is getting married this weekend and she will be starting her new teaching job this coming fall. She needs some new clothes to wear to work, but they really don't have the money as newly weds. My mother in law had clothes in her closet that were this girls size and they still had store tags on them. She's now has some new clothes to start her new job.

My mother in law Vera, was a blessing to me and many others in her life. Now even in death she is still blessing others. I believe God has a plan for even our smallest to our biggest problems and difficulties. We just need to pray, have faith and wait on the Lord and His perfect timing.

Great story David!

One thing I’ve been struck by many times is that when you read Christian writings from days gone by, they talk about Providence constantly. But you rarely hear anyone mention the providence of God in today’s culture. Thank God for His providence.
