New Coats

such a wonderful blessing! Two of our girls were needing  'real' good coats, now that they have stopped growing. We have been looking for a couple of water proof warm winter coats that don't cost an arm or a leg. We can have such blizzard conditions here it is necessary.  A couple years ago Ron got a nice waterproof/down coat and he uses it!  Well last week we went to the nearby/faraway  big city to the name brand outdoor store where they had clearance coats. You know the $2-300 kind that one drools over but can rarely affort let alone for a whole family?  Well we found two nice ones - clearance affordable too. Beth wanted a different color but the fit was perfect. Em's was jsut right. So purchased hers and waited  a couple hours to hear from the manager if another store had Beth's size and color.  They found one-wonderful! Even though it would have to be shipped. That's ok! So free shipping and they gave us 20% off on both coats, so we got to very nice coats for under $200.  Shows me again that God is very much aware of the small details and our personal preferances too! So very comforting. 

If My Words Abide in You -(Scripture Memory)

The very essense of memorizing! I have never heard anyone speak the Word in this way from memory! Dynamic and Refreshing! We were moved! An example what the word of God in heart and mind will do. I hope you are blessed too!!  We were introduced last evening to "This is My Word", from Isaiah 55. In searching for it on u tube, I also came across this sermon that moved us deeply. (slip on past the intro song and be blessed!) As we trek on through the book of Acts; let it saturate us, slowly  sink in, and stick!
