“So they have their new holiday cups out at Starbucks..and all together they have four total..and I had gotten two of them..but was really wanting to get the other two..I know it sounds trivial..and your probably thinking, Mandi what in the world does this have to do with the Lord..well, for starters I go to get me a cup of coffee this morning..and I get to my truck and was so excited because I had gotten another new one..so I thought well that is so nice..that only leaves me one more to get..but too much of my surprise..they had double cupped my coffee because it was really hot..and, of course, you know where I am going with this..so I take and pull off the first cup and there it was the last cup that I was wanting..Amen..my point to each of us today is this..God cares about everything that we care about..1 Peter 5:7..Amen..He loves to bless us..even in the most smallest of ways..but He loves to do it..Amen..and as we well He tells us in His word that when we delight ourselves in Him that He gives us the desires of our hearts..Psalm 37:4..Amen..but what really got me and always gets me about the Lord is that He goes above and beyond when it comes to us..He does more for us daily then we probably ever take notice of..Amen..this week has been incredible for me..my son out of the blue decides to start cooking family dinners for us..Amen..that is such a huge blessing for this momma right here..it is just overwhelming really at Gods goodness..Amen..last night I go to my bible study class which just happened to be the last one for this semester and I walk through the door and the ladies begin to ask me if I would be willing to teach the winter semester class..which begins in January and follows through till the first week of April..Amen..and, of course, you all know that I said yes..so I get to choose the lesson plan..I meet the lady that taught this last class and she says there is a whole library full of lessons that I can choose from..so if any of you know me..that is my heart desires..and that is fellowshipping with other women..studying the word of God together..and encouraging them..so for these things that has happened this week to me..they are things that are above and beyond for me..and you see that is just how God is with each of us..we just get up and daily so living the right way..doing the right things..sowing good seeds in our lives..and continuing to walk daily holding fast to the Lords’ hand..Amen..so just know that God hears your prayers..and He answers them..and just know that God is no respecter of persons..Romans 2:11-16/Acts 10:34..for He can do anything, anywhere and anytime that He alone chooses..for He is God..and when He does He always does more than we could ever ask or ever think..Ephesians 3:20..for He is a good God..and a good Father to us His children..so keep on keeping on..praying and seeking Gods face..and living your life to please Him above all..for He is your everything..and He is God..so let us never forget that..and let us keep our eyes open to the blessings that He alone gives and gives daily..for it is in His name, Jesus’ name, that I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi
