Good Morning, now afternoon,

So many interuptions but we needed to share this true story today.

Pig is excited.

As she said, I have never heard this story before.

Well, Pig it was along time ago.

I think almost 42 years now. Its funny I remember it like it was, almost yesterday.


We had just moved to Riverside, California. A cute two bedroom with a shared garage that had an open wall to divide our cars.

We had a little yard in the back fenced. Our neighbors had notified us of its availability and the cheap rent.


They knew us there from church.

Judy and Ron both were in the choir with us and it was fun to know someone that we could visit and talk to.


They later helped me as I worked at the ice cream Parlor that I could walk to around the corner.

We had only one car.

I scooped ice cream and made tacos and made home made lemonade.

It was fun and helped bring in a little money we needed for groceries.


The children were allowed to have an ice cream and a taco on the days that I worked there.

My husband worked two jobs and he needed a better paying job to make ends meet.


One day as we were driving to see my Mother in San Bernardino we were discussing that he needed a new Job and that even though he put in endless applications.

He had commented to me that you really need to know someone to get your application accepted.


As I listened to him as he seemed so calm and sincere.

I then responded looking directly at him.

I said, We do know someone.

He looked at me hopeful and so kind and excited to who we may know someone as he waited for me to say who it was.

I said, GOD.


His response was now in anger and disappointment as if GOD is not going to be enough.

So far nothing he had done he thought, as GOD knows what I need and it hasn't worked out

Yet.


My husbands' voice now elevated said, I mean someone that has skin on and a body to help me.

GOD will be enough if we Pray. I said.


My husband said,

I will BELIEVE THAT GOD CAN HELP ME .

WHEN MY JOB WALKS IN THE DOOR.


I immediately said, By your word I said, TO GODs EAR TO BE DONE.

In JESUS NAME

AMEN.


My husband dissmissed me but remembered what he said.


That week we were watching a T.V. commercial together that said, for pennys a day you could have clean water for you and your family to bring good health.


He immediately proclaimed.

I may not have much to give but By GOD,

I will be able to at least give my children at least clean drinking water to drink.


He wanted me to call the next day.

I did, as he asked.

That week we were to have the reverse osmosis water technician scheduled to come.

He finally came and apolygized he was late.

He said, He had so many that are calling in and we don't have enough technicians to install them.

I instantly responded.

My husband is looking for a new job.

He said, great. We really need the help and they will train you.


I just so happen to have an application on the seat of my truck.

I will give you.

Tell your husband to call and I will give you the direct number of my Boss.


THE JOB WALKED IN THE DOOR.

I could hardly wait to tell him the first Miracle of the job we had prayed for.


My husband smiled, as I gave him the application and the phone number to call.

He immediately turned in the application and talked to the Boss on the phone.

HE WAS HIRED.

Now he was informed he needed a TRUCK and TOOLS to start the job.


My husband knew he didn't have the money to do that and he said what do we do now?

It was like a prayer in the air as GOD was LISTENING.


I said, IF GOD COULD WALK A JOB THROUGH THE DOOR I said,

that you needed.


GOD CAN GIVE YOU A TRUCK.


WE NEED TO HAVE FAITH.

We both agreed.


We just waited on GOD and then prayed and waited to see what HE WAS GOING TO DO.


Then Pig,

We were watching TV again and listened to another commercial that said, Zero credit

No money down.

So come down and get your new car or truck at Fontana Nissan in Fontana, California.


So, we went that night and picked out the truck.

However with no credit and no money ?


The salesperson said, We needed a small down payment to finance.

Come back when you have a down payment and we will finance for you.


We went home and I was still encouraged as I reminded him.

GOD gave you a job .


We picked out the truck.

GOD will supply the way to supply ALL our needs.


My husband was hopeful but not knowing how that would be done.

All I could say GOD is GOD and lets believe.


He was kind to me saying nothing more not to damper my enthusiasm.

We went to sleep.

I dreamed a dream.

I dreamed that my husband was writing out many checks and handing them all to the sales person.

I told my husband that GOD said, To go back and write the checks to the car dealership.


My husband replied, Do you know you can go to jail for writing BAD CHECKS?


ALL I KNOW, IS TO GO AND DO WHAT GOD SAID.

Ok, HE said I will go.

I went with him too.


My husband went and said, in a low voice as he explained about my dream that I had and what he was to say to the salesperson.

The Sales Person said, YES. WE CAN DO THAT.


We will verify your new employment and do not date your checks until your payroll check is received and we will finance you as if this was a big down payment given as one amount.


My husband looked at me and then looked up as if to look up to GOD as his heart was pounding in excitement and now the hope realized that he was getting a truck.

GOD IS DOING THIS.


He drove his new truck home as I drove home with the children.

I am sure he said, a lot of Thank you to GOD as he dedicated his truck to GOD.


The next day he notified his new BOSS that he had a truck but no money for tools .


His Boss said, I will loan you some TOOLS until you can get your own and

THEN HIS JOB BEGAN.


My husband told me another Prayer was answered.

We both said, Thank you together in Prayer.


GOD is GOD and its still a faith walk every day.


The next Sunday came and we had no money to start the week with.

Not even a quarter.


He needed gas to go to work and I needed some groceries.

He had scheduled appointments to go to Palm springs and San diego and the mountains.

He was going everwhere.


We went to church and WE NEEDED A MIRACLE.

They were teaching about tithes and offerings and how GOD blesses you more than you can imagine or think,

WHEN YOU GIVE.


We also learned we needed to give something when you come into the HOUSE of the LORD.

That is what we do with a PROMISE that we would always have what we needed and that we are to give to honor to the one who made us and Loves us.


Bring something even a dollar, if that is all to what you have.

The story of the widows mite less than a penny Luke 21-1:24

HE will bless you.


To give to the poor even a glass of water to a child or to give something we have to give is giving.

Mathew 10:42

Give even out of our own need.

2 Corinthians 8:1-9

This help us to be sensitive to others than just thinking about ourselves.


Then Have FAITH and stand on the PROMISESOF GOD.

Anything we can give and do in JESUS NAME is something good that pleases GOD.


( 2 CORINTHIANS 8:12-15 READ IN THE LIVING BIBLE)


We listened as The Preacher said, to come up if you needed a MIRACLE.

He spoke to the congregation and one person came up and put two twenty dollar bills in our hands.


We went back to our seats as then the offering plate came around that just tested your faith of GOD and his blessing so this was the time to give your TITHING and offerings.


I first wanted to put my diamond ring in the offering plate as I was so moved by the sermon.


My husband took it out of the offering plate and gave it back to me to put it back on my finger and then he looked at me and put one of the twenty dollar bill in the offering plate.

That was a 50 % tithe of what we had.


WE were happy with GOD and what HE was going to do but we were still a little aprehensive but reassuring ourselves that GOD can do anything as we had just experienced with the job and the truck .


I just received a few dollars for food for the week.

The rest went in the tank.

He prayed over his truck and the gas as he went all week with the gas we had and we had enough food for the entire week.


This was truly a MIRACLE.

I DON'T KNOW HOW THAT WORKED OUT?

BUT EVERY WORD IS TRUE.


Pig said that is amazing. I know.

It was a Miracle.


There are many more miracles to share.

Like the story of My Mother.

If my husband didnt have this job I couldnt of helped my Mother in her last days or I would of not been able to see her and help her to invite her to say,

I believe you are the one true GOD as GOD allowed her to speak out of a comma her last moments to say, I am ok.

I am alright.

She agreed with me in Prayer, Come into my heart and then JESUS saved her out of a comma.

Another MIRACLE and The Plan of GOD.


This JOB was the instrument that GOD gave us to do many things.

I have many stories Pig to tell but for today this is my story.

This is my song

Praising my SAVIOR all the day long.

I loved it. Pig said.


What did you eat that week? With just a few dollars?

Pig asked.


All I can remember is, Your favorite meal.

PANCAKES and Milk and the rest I don't know?

It just seemed to be there.

Everything Pig, I needed.

The children were happy and so was I.


GOD supplied all our needs.

The end of the week came the groceries were purchased the tank still had some gas in it but still needed some.


We all rejoiced and Thanked GOD.

We shared our story to many others to encourage them in times of need throughout the years.

WE HAVE PRAYED FOR OTHERS.

PRAISE and BELIEVE YOU WILL RECEIVE.


GIVE THANKS.

GOD HEARS YOU.

HE is not a respector of persons meaning?

What he did for us HE will do for you.


HE loves us ALL THE SAME.

I love that about GOD. Pig said.

Me too. I said.


Pig said, I am getting pretty hungry now thinking about PANCAKES.

I think I want them for dinner to?


Is that ok? Pig asked.

I said, of course we use to eat breakfast for dinner many times.

Lets go in the kitchen Pig and make some.

And then, we did.


Our story today

from Pig and me.
