I wanted to write about a miracle that happened recently. It all started about 2 1/2 years ago. My son was in trouble and came to MD to get himself together. He had lost his Grandfather's business and the house they sold him. Somehow we decided to buy a foreclosed house in Saginaw for he and his family to move into. God made it clear that it was His will, so I did it and then he made it clear I also was to move to Saginaw and have one of my grandson live with me. (long story)
We wrote a land contract on the house but they never paid on it. This last summer they decided to go to NY for a visit. They were on a budget plan with the power company and if the payment wasn't made they would have to pay the full $6000 owed before it would be turned back on. Needless to say the payment was not made and they of course wouldn't be able to live in the house again. Which left me with the house, taxes, water bill and a huge mess to deal with.
Now on to the miracle. Sometime maybe in April or May a young couple started coming to church. The Spirit told me to invite them to come live with me. At first I thought they would think I was crazy, I didn't even know them nor they me. I got to know them a little better and found out they were looking for a new place, so I offered them my house to stay in until they could get into a place. They accepted.
A couple of weeks later, the stuff with my son happened. I realized the Lord's hand was in all this. I told the couple what had happened and that the Spirit had told me to invite them. I told them I believed that it was the Lord's plan for them to have the house. No pressure but just go look. So they did and it didn't take long and we worked out all the details.
I had hoped that house would bless my son and his family, it didn't and now I just hoped it could bless someone else. We wrote a land contract with the same price and terms as with my son. Only they are actually paying! So we are all blessed. I didn't have to deal with any of the house mess, they cleaned it all etc.
God is so good!! It amazed me that He had it all worked out before I even knew there was a problem. How is it even possible for Him to take care of us so well? All the details!! I am so grateful for His hand in my life and all His children's.
One last little detail, because they were living at my house while I was gone on my 9,000 mile road trip I didn't have to worry about the house or my sweet kitty!! Amazing!!!
