Visits continue

I have a story to tell.  A God visit of a dear friend and sister in the Lord.  Karen loved my Mom and my Mom loved Karen.  So I will attempt to relay Karen's visit from our Lord as best I can.  On Sunday, Karen gathered with her family at her Mom's house. Her brother Kirk collects items for restoration (curb shopping, treasure rescue...whatever you want to call it, I love it !!!).  A while back he had picked up an item and forgot about it.  Does anyone remember the string art back in the 70's? Well this was a large piece of  string art.  He "just happened" to bring it with him on Sunday and since Karen's son's girlfriend likes this kind of thing Kirk was going to give it to her.   He asked Karen transfer the picture for him to Scott's girlfriend.  When he handed her the picture, she was completely amazed....it was a string art butterfly!!!

My Mom loved butterflies.  In fact when Karen and Greg came home from their recent cross country trek, she has brought my Mom some souvenirs and all of them were butterfly designs.

God had used this art piece to comfort Karen.  Imagine, months and months ago, God had planned Kirk's finding of this piece, planned the timing of him giving it to Karen, all to bring comfort, peace and joy to one of his beloved children.  Just think about this.   Our God is so amazing.  Even when all seems wrong, His timing, His ways are perfect.  And He is so loving and intimately involved with us.

Please never forget this.  He knows what He is doing.  And the Father is always planning for our good.  Thank You Lord.
