Red letter day

Today was a great day. We had lots of positive things happen today for the dinner / auction. We were given a $30 gift card to a restaurant, a $25 gift card to a grocery store, 2 golf lessons from a pro valued at $30 each, about $45 in value of books from a book store, enough food to feed about 180 people for our rigatoni dinner and most likely will get the balance of the food donated from a friend of ours as well. All of this happened about a few hours apart. As I was driving home from collecting most of these items, I was thinking of how God is providing each day something positive. He keeps us encouraged with something new every day. I am reminded that his mercies are new every day and so is his generosity. He continues to grow all of our faith as we see him providing for our adoption. This was TOO big for us on our own, God had to be in it for it to work out and he is at work. When God shows up, he shows off.
