I am officially settled in and the apartment feels so much like home now. In just a short amount of time my housemates, Emily Rice and Bethany Mast, and I have made this empty place to a place we can call home. My housemates and I were able to put together a list, a long list, of items we need for our home. Yesterday morning we left our apartment virtually empty besides a few hospitality items. We sincerely had nothing of our own. And then, God blessed US!
Besides buying a few smaller items,sets of plates, and food... the Lord gave us EVERYTHING we needed. Every single item on our list was given to us some way or another! Many people from Rosslyn left last school year and left items designated to my housemate! Down to "cooking spray" and "clothes pins." In a 12 hour span we went from nothing to having too many items! The LORD is GOOD. House appliances are very expensive here and we were blessed to get a microwave, toaster, mixer, and a hot water warmer. I could not help but tear up and thank God for every item that I pulled out of tubs that were given to us. Now, I am able to begin to save up to pay off my school loans!
We are blessed. You are blessed. I dont believe we realize how blessed we are! I too, need to put even more faith in Jesus Christ into our lives. When we put our faith in Jesus Christ FULLY, amazing things happen! All honour and glory to God!
