A weekend to remember with my WEU sisters came with many God
winks. Laughter and tears were shared over
thoughts about weekend takeaways, our families, and God working in our
hearts. Of course it was over ice cream
at an outside mall. It all seemed perfect
for a weekend surrounded by women of excellence who love God and want to serve
Him wholeheartedly.
Here are a couple God Winks from that night after ice cream:
1)
One of the women staying with me on Saturday
night, Kristin, is a chiropractor. The
thought of her profession was the last thing I thought as I met Kristin. She is beautiful, striving to follow the
Lord in a difficult situation, and fun to be around.
As we were out having ice cream, I checked
in with my husband to see how my son’s football game had gone. It was good, but Daniel had hurt his
knee. I told the ladies staying with me that we needed to go soon. Kristin
offered to take a look at his knee. Oh,
yeh, she is a chiropractor and “happened’
to be staying at my house on the day my son got hurt!
She looked at his knee and said he would be
fine after some ice and rest. No need
for an ER visit on a Saturday night. Thank
you God!!
2)
Leaving early leads to the next God wink! Marian had gone to dinner with us as well
because her husband was still visiting their son at a nearby university. Marian’s bags were in my car and we left
forgetting all about them. God provided
for Kristin in our “oversight.”
Marian
had to come to my house to get her bags out of my trunk which allowed her to be
a part of a conversation with Kristin. Marian was able to encourage Kristin in her present,
difficult situation. Marian could empathize better than the rest of
us because she had walked the path Kristin was walking. They talked for over an hour.
Forgetting
Marian’s bag in the car was not an accident!
God provided for Kristin and my son.
I love how God shows up and shows off!
Everyday
decisions that seem mundane and insignificant line up to show His handprint of
provision. I am grateful that we saw Him
winking.
