I was heading out for my run this morning when I realized I had left my

iPod on over night and the battery was dead.  I enjoy running to worship songs and I'm one of those folks who needs music to keep going.  I offered up a little prayer of complaint and said Lord I will run in silence if I must but you know I like my music.  The iPod literally began playing.  The battery bar showed no power but the music was flowing.  I headed out with the knowledge that it wouldn't last long but the farther I ran the more battery life it showed.  The Lord was charging my iPod

 
To some this will seem to be too much to believe, but the Lord loves to bless me in these simple and miraculous ways.  I have story after story of the little blessings He brings to me.  How He loves to surprise me with favor.  Some call it luck or chance but I have come to recognize His hand in it all!
 
One of my favorites is how He provided me with new boots.  I love shoes and I use to have a lifestyle that afforded me the ability to buy expensive shoes whenever I desired.  Now that I have left my job to head to Africa I have been learning to live with less and be more responsible with the money He provides.  But, I fell in love with this pair of Keen boots.  On sale they were still $149.00!  I just keep looking at them online but was remaining obedient by not buying them. 
 
About a week later my mom and I went to the local thrift store to look for drapes for the girls room.  Suddenly my eye catches sight of pair of the exact same boots I have been stalking on the Internet.  There laid a pair of nearly new Keen boots in my size.  Not only that, there were two pairs brown and black.  I nearly danced out of the store!  Thank you Lord for teaching me to rely on your provision and thank you Lord for my Keens they ROCK!
 
So why does He bless me so abundantly?  Some believe it is because I was obedient in adopting the girls.  Or that it is because I have Faith in all things no matter how small or silly they may seem.  But the truth is, God just LOVES me that much!  And since God does not show favoritism. Romans 2:11, that means He loves you that much too!
