Noticing Jesus in the encouragement, prayers and donations from friends and family is what keeps you going. I have been so blessed with so many that I ask or don't even have to ask and they give without fail. And I am not using the word "blessed" lightly!! They are ALWAYS there for me!!!! AMAZING!
A recent act of generosity in a fun way that shows you that God even uses facebook to bless others...haha. One of my "friend's friends" saw that we were taking school and medical supplies with us on the little ticker in the corner of facebook that passes by quickly. She contacted me to give us supplies to take. Her sweet mom also gave me a check for the EXACT amount we needed for an additional luggage charge to be able to bring more with us. I LOVE when I see Jesus in those moments. He uses a complete stranger to ease my worries. I especially love that I consider that stranger now as a friend.
So my lesson in this journey is to not overlook even the smallest detail as Christ's work! If I do then I've missed the greatest gift!
And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.
