Camera Issues and Unexpected Blessings!

Between VBS and packing for our vacation, our trusty Sony camera was no longer working! We had it for five great years...so it was actually trashed and we purchased another! During our "non-camera" days, we enjoyed the pool, playful days at home, and I volunteered at the Perkins Center distributing food and clothing to those in times of crisis/need twice a week.

How blessed I was during this time! A precious lady brought her father in for groceries and clothing. The father needed a wheelchair to make it into the building and interview room. After all the goodies were approved and loaded up, the daughter asked if by chance a wheelchair had been donated. Usually, the answer is no. However, I double checked and a brand-new chair was donated earlier in the week. God blessed me by being able to tell this women, "take the chair, be blessed, we love you and God loves you. I hope it helps your daddy." She cried. The cry that comes from deep within one's soul. Deep. True. Heartfelt. "Thank you Jesus; God you are awesome; God you are good, even when it's hard, you are good," was her immediate response. I'm not sure who was blessed more!
