how sweet is the Lord?
Aug 10th, 2010 by christina
Michael and I have never had a bed in six years of marriage. A frame and mattresses, thankfully yes, but never a bed. We’d been looking for some time and decided on our ‘dream bed’ – a modern 4 poster – but never had the extra couple thousand dollars to spend on it. Then around our anniversary this year I was browsing through craiglist and what should pop up but the exact bed, granted it was in pretty bad shape, but for only $100!!! We snapped it up and with one weekend of work got it in pretty great shape. Every night it feels like we are staying at a wonderful Bed and Breakfast, not just our room. We are still in grateful awe to our sweet Abba for such an unexpected, blessing. I am so amazed how He is the God of abundance, the One who gives us beyond what we even need, the One who loves delighting us in even these kinds of things!
Yay…what a sweet reminder of His care for you…
What a beautiful bed! How fun, just before your sweet baby arrives! Praise God for blessing you with things that make you happy!
The Lord is good! That bed is beautiful. I’m a big fan of having a great bed—we do spend so much of our life sleeping, it might as well be in a nice place.
I love reading your writings.
