If there is anyone out there struggling with their faith maybe this will help you.
Every year I like to mail Christmas cards to all of our shut-ins and elderly church members who are not able to attend services. The list usually has quite a few people on it.
Well this year I got the list but only had a VERY small amount of money to buy groceries and gas for my car for the entire week (we're talking less than $15.00).
I felt so bad. I know alot of people who hate sending out cards but I really love to do it. I always prayed over each card as I made it out that in some small way it would bless the person who was to receive it.
I prayed about it, I told God how much I longed to send those cards out and how bad I felt about not being able to. The next day as my husband was getting out of the car, there at his feet was a whole roll of stamps!
It may not seem like much to alot of people, but to me it was the Miracle of the Stamps! I have been having some spiritual battles lately and walked through some very deep valleys and really needed to draw on God and it was as if God were telling me that He is mindful of the smallest details in our lives. And if he takes such notice of the little things then surely He knows all about the big things!
No matter what you are going through, draw closer to God, He really does care
