The Windows of Heaven

Malachi 3:10 Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing , that there shall not be room enough to receive it.

The Lord has opened the windows of Heaven to our family. Since John lost one of his jobs a few months ago we have slowly been using up the extra food in the pantry and eating away at our saving account. But we want for little, we are so blessed. Over the past few months I have come home often to find something left on our doorstep. A gift, some cloths, food, different things. Each time we have been given what we need when we need it. Rarely more then a day goes by when I think of something we need that we cannot afford before it shows up on our door step. I know the Lord is looking out for us because some times it is an item that no one knew e needed. A few days before the space heater used to warm the nursery broke I found a pair of Blanket Pajamas in Glen's size, an item I had wanted but told no one about. Yesterday I went shopping and depressed at how little I was able to take home. Today two boxes full of food were given to us.
I do the math and there is no way we should be surviving on one part time job at less then $11, but we are. The Lord has truly opened the windows of Heaven and I feel about to burst with the blessings he has poured out on our head.

  1. Not so good. He has applied at two or three places, but most places aren't hiring and the ones that are "aren't hiring." We are still praying.
    At least he still has his job at the libray.
