I saw God today

So my mom got me a credit card to use for gas and "emergencies."
She let me keep it with me this past week just because it was more
convenient. Well, yesterday after getting my extensions taken out
(YES I DID IT!), My sister and I went to the mall to get Smoothie King.
Then we were walking through stores just looking and at 'Express' I saw
this super cool purse that was $60 and I thought "I can find a cheaper one".
We go through 'New York & Co.' And I see cute purses for $30-$40.Even
better! I said "lets go to Macy's and come back if I don't find anything"
Wellllll...Macy's had Dooney & Burkes and JEnnifer is helpless when
she is put in the same room as designer greatness. So my plastic beauty
paid for my GORGEOUS new Dooney & Burke purse. I was happy but
had that guilty feeling. When I got home my mom went BALISITIC .
As crazy as a mother can get when her daughter spends more money
than she could on her credit card for emergencies only. She gave me
the whole "you don't have a job, you can't support yourself, you know
darn well you shouldn't have spent this much money on just a purse!"


Yeah I don't have a job, but this is where the point of my story is:
I decided I should get a nice little job to pay for my own things and
to save up for when I move out on my own and for school/college/things
like that. Weellll God being the great Lord that he is intervened and I
didn't realize it at first.

Jo Hirlinger wrote on my wall on facebook offering me a job at
her dad's carlot. HOW EASSY IS THAT!? answer phones, 3 hours a night
a few times a week. And the pay is great! That night when I was saying
my prayers and falling asleep, it HIT ME! THE HEAVENLY FATHER I
HOLD FAITH IN WAS THE REASON FOR ALL THIS.

bottom line: I saw God today.

  1. God is good, for sure! I wish He would show up like that for me.. now, especially!

    PS- I picked up a Bible from church today. I don't know if you still want one, but if you want this one, you can have it. It's a Today's New International Version.. it's easy to comprehend :)

  2. He's there for you Brandie, He'll make you aware of his presence when you least expect it yet need it most. Trust me. He'll help you because I've been praying for you.

    *And yeah that'd be really nice. THANK YOU! :)
