Freely give us all things

"He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all–how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things?" Romans 8:32

I have been meditating on this verse this past week as amazing things have happened over and over. The Lord has blessed us with several major financial blessings, but best of all He has used these and other things to reach out to a person from another culture and religious background. As this person has seen our God and Father working miracles in our lives, one of which she was involved with, she has been encouraged to ask questions that have allowed me to share Jesus with her.

What a God! Somehow, when these things started to happen, I thought they were to encourage me, and I am sure they were. But as the week developed, it became clear that they were also for her. This is the God I serve: a God who can work good for everyone at the same time, a God who shows His love to those who believe and to those who do not, and a God who answers prayers, even ones we did not know specifically how to ask for!
