Another story for the jar.
It was Christmastime and we had decided to have our official Christmas dinner a bit later due to finances. Before anyone asks/says anything, we do not go crazy with the gifts. We are just a paycheck to paycheck family. It is what it is.
Anyway, we were blessed three times. An anonymous car came by and two men came to our door. I was at work. My older dd answered. "Give this envelope to you parents", they said. Meela called me in a panic. "I don't know what they gave me. Do you think everything is ok??" I said that I didn't know and to open the envelope. Inside was a $100 gift card to BJ's. I have no idea who gave it to us but thank you!!!! It was such a blessing.
Second blessing: DH and I had to sell our wedding rings to pay for some bills. It was heartbreaking, but we have been together for many years and the rings are just a symbol. We don't need to have them to show our love or mark our years. Someone at our friend's church found out. We got an envelope from a family that heard about it. Two gift cards to Giant and $50. Praise you, Jesus!!!
Third time: I started working in July of 2013. At Christmas we got a bonus!! An extra amount that was totally unexpected!!
Three more stories for the jar.
AMEN!
