This week God provided free food or groceries every day and none of the people He used knew anything about our budget being tight lately. Just another example of God letting us know that He sees what’s going on and that He’s with us.
THURSDAY
FREE Chic-Fil-A chargrilled salad (Chic-Fil-A Calendar Coupon) that somehow fed all six of us as a side dish.
FRIDAY
FREE 11 oz. bag of Lay’s chips left after swim practice that the life guard gave to us.
SATURDAY
Friends going out of town gave us their leftover produce
with all these goodies plus a package of mixed salad greens,
bell pepper slices and cherry tomatoes.
(We ate it before I took the pic!)
SUNDAY
Ten onions my husband’s boss gave him.
PLUS neighbors gave us some leftovers including
lettuce, cheese, flour tortillas and refried beans.
MONDAY
Four 1.8 quart bottles of O.J. from a friend.
TUESDAY
Friends going out of the country for two months
gave us the contents of their fridge…
and pantry!
WEDNESDAY
More free food!
My husband was also given a necklace and notebook from Sea World that we were able to give as a birthday gift to one of my daughter’s friends.
Isn’t God good?

That is awesome! I also was given some free food this week for my family of seven. A friend has a friend who coordinates CSA boxes. There was an extra box and she shared with me these things: 2 heads romaine lettuce, 2 heads napa cabbage, 2 cucumbers, a bunch of beet greens, a bag of green beans, and several zucchini. Also, someone gave us a big bag of groceries. And of course, I got some freebies with coupons. Then I took a meal to a friend who just adopted two children (and she’s in the hospital) and the same day another friend brought us a meal unexpectedly! He does provide!
God is so awesome! Thanks for sharing this with me. It is so encouraging to hear how He is working in other people’s lives.
WOW! Kimberlee
This week I have been struggling with trusting God with our Financial situation. Reading your blog and Gods provisions has really helped me to trust HIM again in all situations. He is the only way to get through tough times. Also, as I am typing this He is reminding me of specific situations that He blessed us when it was tough. You are right God knows what we need and provides it for us just at the right time. I need to stay close to His word and promises.
thanks again,

I so enjoy reading your pages! I am a recent college graduate and a teacher at a small, Christian high school. This past year has taught me so much about living on a budget and making my priorities — it’s also taught me that God’s priority is me! He never fails to provide, and it just amazes me. Why do I ever worry?
