Just ask...
This beautiful Sunday morning I am reflecting over the past week...The flower shop really needed a new display cooler. An opportunity presented and I needed to raise $1500. Not much really...but that would have to be in excess of the daily expenses. I asked the universe for help, siting the exact amount I needed. My faith was not strong...One of my most trusted wholesalers told me this week and next is traditionally the slowest weeks of the year in the floral industry. She looked in my cooler, seeing how full and well stocked it was exclaimed "OH my!"..She shook her head..as if I would be eating all those flowers. I enjoyed the Labor Day Weekend with family and did not even go in to the shop until early Tuesday AM. I allowed Shelly to work that day to make up for the Monday off with caution. I did not even put on make up, just stuck a cap on my head and went in to just open and come home.. The phone was ringing as I opened the door and it did not stop until closing... A prominent citizen had passed away over the weekend and his viewing was scheduled for Tuesday evening....Shelly and I created nearly thirty beautiful pieces including the casket spray... The total was 30 cents off my sited need. My son-in-law asked if next time I might include a little extra for spending money..... I think the terms of grace is "sufficient for your needs."..not wants....Expenses were made...and the cooler purchased. Trusting in grace is difficult. (trusting for me in any form is difficult.) But my children...it will work..
