Quiet Moments....

I am truly grateful for the opportunity to have some quiet moments in my crazy day for reflection.
I just put Miss P down for a nap, and was making lunch, and thinking about the blessing the Lord has given us lately.
My thoughts went back to us moving into the place we are at now, we were given the opportunity to manage a small complex of apartments, for a small rent discount, which we thought was great, because our rent would be a little cheaper and a lot bigger place.

As I was thinking today, I was able to see a small glimpse of the bigger picture, of how the Lord has guided us these past few years.
Mr. S lost his job about a year after living here, than he starting working a job which had him traveling 4 weeks with one week off. He was offered the position which would keep him home, but it was going to be a huge pay cut from what we had been use to the past 5 years.
We felt it was right and gladly accepted, as he would be able to be at home with us and have a calling. Paid our tithing faithfully, knowing that the Lord would take care of us.
In November we were offered the opportunity to take on more responsibility with the complex, which would give us a better discount on rent. The owner called the other day, telling us that she had made a mistake and since November we had been over paying on our rent, and she owes us money.

I am so grateful for a loving Heavenly Father, who give us comfort, inspiration and directs us in what is best for each of us. I am grateful for the law of Tithing and for the blessing which come from that.
