I never wanted to be self-employed. I wanted security. I wanted dental insurance. In my life with Nate, I have experienced the richness of provision. Of moments like the one when a friend showed up on our doorstep with a washing machine just hours after ours spun its last load. Not to sound overly spiritual, but we have been blessed.

You can't see her hand, but in this photo, Claire has perfected the sign for "please." She fervently rubs her little chest whenever she wants or needs something. I doubt she understands what this means. She just knows "rub chest, get Teddy Graham." It's simple. She trusts that we will respond. And we do. We delight in her asking.
Even before I ask, provision is there. Even if I don't ask nicely, He cares. Kind of takes your breath away.

Amen, amen, amen! I have been wanting to post about this same topic for a long time and it just never came out right. You captured it completely.
Jason and I have experienced the same thing countless times during our years of marriage, but especially during our years of business ownership. God always provides. He is good.
On paper none of it makes sense. It is beyond our human understanding how He puts everything together at just the right time.
thanks for talking about stuff I need to hear...
updates soon...I hope...

Tobin, at four years old, still uses the "more" sign when he really wants something.
funny the (sometimes basic) life lessons we can learn- and relearn- from our kids. i feel like i'm constantly being reminded of who God is and what he *really* thinks of me.
