The Lord and a Yard Sale

June 20, 2013

This wasn't your typical yard sale. My friend was selling for survival. He was unemployed and needed to pay the rent.. We pray for success. The phone rings and he dashes inside to answer it.

He returns and rescues his kitchen table and chairs from his lawn. "That call was from a lady who
wants me to paint her house," he says, "I quoted that job six months ago and she calls today."

"That call was from the Lord," I offer. We both tear up.

"Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden and I will give you rest." (Matthew 11:30)
