Thanks for God's Provision & Answer to Prayer

[Alive]

A few months ago, I realized that continuuing to do handyman work was coming to an end as a matter of a warn out body for such, so I had set out to upgrade my Architectural Design package and begin to put together a portfolio to use in beginning a revenue stream one way or another.

The Software has a 'Forum' where architects and draftsman hang out sharing, learning, and discussing various aspects of the work and software capabilities.

Anyway, I had allowed for a year or more of preparations before sticking my foot in the waters, but I saw (in the job postings) area, where an architect has requested help two years ago and had recently bumped the post.

I was compelled to respond, though I did not feel ready.

Long story short, I sent him some of my work which led to him getting back to me. It turns out that he is a brother and along with just now wrapping up the second project, we have had great fellowship. He is very pleased with how things are going--and I am so grateful the Lord has answered the need in spades. He is indeed amazing!

Thank you, LOrd.

I often wonder if God answers more abundantly than we think to ask for ourselves  once we fully rely on Him in our hearts  

Great news at a time when there is so much gloom and doom around

Amen sister! In the middle of this, I recall mentioning to the Lord and I said to Him, "Lord, I trust you and not circumstances".

The Lord does have a plan for each of us. I have often thought of prayer as 'agreeing with the Lord". Thy will be done.

We do not want what He isn't involved in....if that makes any sense.

Hey Alive,

I get it. I also still need to continue putting beans on the table, and I have a 401K. sorta.
Friends ask about it and I show them my shop, tools equipment etc.
As a cabinet maker, I supply commercial business with laboratory machine enclosures.
I tell them   "There's my 401K"  I'm the boss. God's the owner, president and CEO.
Every day I confer with Him as to the 'plan' for the day. It's His shop.
I know His presence, I feel His presence, and "lean not to my own plans"
The labor puts the beans on the table, and the bonus is it keeps me fit.
After 54 yrs in the trade, I still have ten full size fingers.....

Ain't God good!
