Day 4: A Simple Need Met

October 4, 2014 By Mary Hill 19 Comments

Provision
 
Philippians 4:19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
 
 

 
Flashes of lightning
Rain pouring,
Caught without an umbrella
A kind woman at the bank,
gave me an umbrella and 
said don’t worry
about bringing it back.
 
Simple need
met in an extraordinary way
Kindness offered when 
Needed the most.
 

Has God ever provided for you without even a prayer? Share in the comments and bless us all today.

 

This post is my third installment in both both the 31 Days online writing challenge started by home blogger, Myquillyn Smith (The Nester) and Kate Motaung’s 31-Day Five Minute Writing Challenge.

    The best way to repay someone for doing something kind for you is to do something kind for someone else.

    The tender mercies of the Lord are many. Sometimes we don’t even realize at the time just how significant the “little” moments of life are.

      Yes, it does Lizzi, but my faith was restored with the hop because I get to read about incredible things and kindness every week. 😉

    Such a touching poem Mary. God will provide and every person who helps another is an angel on earth.

    I always look at the kindnesses of others as opportunities to “pay it forward”. And you documented the thank you in a very special way.
