Today someone at my church.. left a fifty dollar gift card in my pigeon hole... for the children and I.. we are going on holidays at the end of the month.. that was a gift in sorts too.. I will use the gift card then.. so we have some extra things for holidays..

I went out to a birthday party for my daughters friends sister.. lol.. turned one years old.. this baby was born seven weeks early and the pregnancy had trouble too.. she was a miracle baby.. I prayed for her.. and even though so early.. did not even need oxygen at birth or after.. amazing.... her mother had problems with pains in her fallopian tubes.. for years and was not able to be pregnant.. I truly believe GOD is totally responsible for this baby being born at all and surviving and thriving as she has..

I hardly ever get invited out.. the family is so beautiful.. they have treated my daughter like their own and I know through these tough years GOD gave my daughter such a good friend.. They often ask me in for a cuppa tea.. and always ask about the family.. not a church family... but their daughter comes to girls club at our church in fact they have chased after us for her to attend.. and they are kind, giving people.. that said to me when my husband walked out.. If there is anything we can ever do.. you come to us ok.. I know they would help us..

Anyhow I did find it difficult today.. because I am hearing impaired and I just cannot get into conversations with other people.. also shy.. lol.. I know.. double whammy.. and also now alone.. and did not know everyone.. The family was busy so I kinda sat on my own a bit.. but they were very understanding.. looking after me.. It was just me.. that feels it.. and although I am glad I can out.. sometimes I do wonder if I shouldn't bother at all..

I came home and just felt so sad.. but today.. GOD has sent a new friend on face book from Maylasia.. who said even only chatting a little bit.. that she could tell I was a kind hearted person.. and someone she could trust.. ohh.. makes me weep a bit.. that she could see my heart.. she says.. believe me others can too.. its just a timing thing.. talked for ages.. just so needed and precious.. my son bought me a coffee too.. while I sat and chatted..

Its nice to get things out.. I can be surrounded by people but cannot share like I want too.. or need too.. but to talk back and forward.. to have someone ask about my family and self and ask them questions and have them respond.. its just precious.. a sister.. a christian sister also posted this scripture to me on face book today... not knowing the kind of day I was having.. so although it has been hard.. I have been so beautifully blessed also.. GOD is good..

I will restore to you the years that the locust had eaten - Joel 2:25

GOD will turn my hard times around!!
