Unexpected Gift


We received an unexpected gift from some friends in the church today. I've become good friends with a girl named Donna, and I guess I mentioned the fact that we don't have a dryer (ours is old and electric, and we need a gas dryer here). So I've been doing all my drying on the line out back, which hasn't been that bad except when it rains (which it did last night with a load on the line). So Donna and her husband Dan called last night and said they (and another anonymous couple) bought us a new dryer. They said the Lord kept laying that on their hearts, and they knew they just had to do something about it. How humbling is that!!! Not only are we thrilled with their generosity, we're also challenged by their sensitivity to the Lord. What a blessing for great friends.

That is so awesome. Praise the Lord. You are going to love that dryer as it is going to be so much more convenient.

What a blessing to know that they are willing to obey! I'm sure there will be many more experiences in this ministry that God will show Himself strong and the great Provider! Thanks for sharing!

YAy!! It's funny, because my husband has been wanting to put in a line. How nice that you have people with such sensitive hearts

I know exactly what you mean about their generosity being humbling -- praise the Lord for working through the Body of Christ.
