Little Miracles

Little Miracles
January 29, 2011
A few weeks ago when a little storm came through we had a pine tree break off about twenty feet up and hung in the tree beside it. We worried and wondered how we was going to get the thing out of the other tree without it hitting my shed, fence, or arbor. It seemed hung in the other tree pretty tight.
Austin come in and said, “Mom, you remember that tree? It fell!” I was worried thinking it probably hit my arbor. I walk out on the porch and looked.
I don’t see it.” I looked and looked again. Austin walks over to it and says, “Mom, you still don’t see?” I said, “No?” I had to walk out to the tree to actually see what had happened.

The broken tree top had came lose from the neighboring tree and swung down and stabbed into the ground making it look like it was just another tree growing in the cluster. It wasn’t until I walked right up to it that I could see where the tree was splintered from the break.

It was stabbed into the earth so well that Stewart went to push it over and it didn’t budge. I know GOD honored my unspoken wish of having that tree come down without damaging anything and also did it without the help of my husband which could have been dangerous. I thank GOD for knowing our needs and providing.
Mat 6:8  …for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.

UPDATE: the storm that blew thru on Feb. 1st 2011 brought the tree on down and it is still a blessing because it only crumpled the wire fence… completely fixable!
