God is So Good!

Several weeks ago a couple living up the street from us had told us that they did not have a refridgerator or a stove. They have been in their rental house for six months without either appliance! I told them I would see what I could do.

I put out an email appeal to my business contacts explaining the situation and in less than 24 hours I had a reply from our former realtor. She said that she had a client who had moved to South Carolina and she had a refridgerator to give away. I went up to look at it, it needed some cleaning up but it worked fine . I then made arrangements with Chris to go get it.

On the day that we went to pick up the fridge we happened to stop at a shop to talk and the owner ask what we were up to, so we explained where we were headed. The owners father happened to be sitting in the shop, overheard the conversation and said, “I have a stove that you can have. Let me get it cleaned up and you can have it” This gentleman happens to own and operate the local appliance store! (Do you think this may have been a divine appointment?) So, Chris and I head up the mountain, pick up the fridge, come back home, and clean it up. By the time we are done with that, the stove is ready to be picked up. This is where God is so good - beyond measure - the stove is an exact color match to the fridge!

We delivered the stove and refridgerator and the couple are sooooo happy! The wife told us several days later about her first home cooked meal in over 6 months…fried green tomatos, fried potatos, chicken and dumplings…um, um, good!

An added benefit to the story, the couple came to church on Sunday! Both enjoyed the service and the husband recommitted his life to Christ! YEAH GOD! It is so much fun being in the center of what God is doing!
