As I am sensing that the season is changing in my life and I
am going to be DOING ministry again I began to pray for an upgrade in my
computer. The previous one that I had,
was a miracle in itself. It was given to
me, from the Lord through someone almost 3 years ago, and has served incredibly
well. But it is a bit slow, and needs
upgrades and virus protection installed among other things. Since I am not techy at all, I have had
several friends who have been trying to convert me to a MAC for a while. So I finally agreed. I began to pray about it. Wasn’t sure what I was to do, and was
contemplating posting on facebook the fact that I need a new computer and
asking people to pitch in for it. God
has taught me to ASK, so I was going to do it.
But since I am learning this NEW lesson of ASKING JESUS ONLY, I was
reluctant. I decided to not tell anyone,
and ask Jesus alone!
I surrendered and said that since I work for Him, and He is
my Employer, I choose to be satisfied with the computer I have. But that if He chooses to, I would LOOOOOVE
to have an upgrade. A MacBook Air 11
inch (easy to fit in my purse for all my travels). But that would have to be a miracle, like
someone handing me the laptop, or giving me a check for $1000.
Laying it in His hands gave me peace. Choosing to be content with what I have also
gave me peace!
THE NEXT MORNING, I was meeting with people I haven’t seen
in a long time. All of a sudden, I get
handed an envelope… with a CHECK for $1000.
I got tears in my eyes, realizing that Jesus is giving me a new
computer, THE NEXT DAY after my request! THAT is a MIRACLE!
In a couple of days, God provided an opportunity to purchase
a computer from a friend. So I have the
computer I wanted, without paying taxes, and warranty for 3 years included. Only Like God, to EXCEED my expectations in
His faithfulness.
He is Beyond Good!
Rejoice with me!!!!
As this is a confirmation from Him that my season of rest is
ending, and I am ‘back in business.’
Back in His business!
