Today the Lord reminded me of... 

His GREAT love for me - 

His tender mercies - 

His loving kindness - 

His attention to detail - 

His Father's heart - 

His provision - 

His plan - 

His will - 

His best - 

His works that are laid out and prepared before me - 

His way of going above & beyond what I could even ask or think - 

His very presence in my life. 

Ephesians 3:14-21

"For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height— to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.

This morning was amazing.

My dear friend brought me an Iced Caramel Macchiato, yummy breakfast sandwich & then took me thrifting. All my love languages were being communicated and I felt so blessed by that special time of connecting & friendship. While thrifting I found these...

Please let me share why these communicate God's love to me...

You see the butterfly habitat in the back?

They sell for about $20 at the store and I just found one for $16 dollars on Amazon. I can remember at least 3 times where I have had the butterfly kit in my hands and then decided to put it back on the shelf because I just did not want to pay that price. Today I found a brand new butterfly kit at Goodwill for $7.99!! Then we went to another Goodwill and I found 2 more habitats!! I bought a tadpole habitat for $9.99 (which sell for $21.14 on amazon) and a ladybug habitat for $1.99 (which sells for $11.37 on amazon). 

I got 3 habitats for around $20!!

I saved almost $30!!!

God is so Good and fully does exceedingly and abundantly above all that I could ask or think! 

Thank you God for loving me and I shout out in worship and praise the last part of the Ephesians verses above...

Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
