I need new jeans. I have one pair that are perfect except for the holes developing on the backside (not the holes you can leave) and another pair that would be great if I hadn't had a baby. In the past when my pair needed replacing, I'd take a coupon down to the Lucky store and buy my standard favorite cut and fit. However, that's still pretty expensive. So I took my jean stealing baby and went to Goodwill. :-) And guess what? There on the rack were a pair of Luckys in my cut and fit! I also found some Gap jeans and a pair of Nine West boots. I was so excited! And grateful. How good is God to take care of my little wardrobe concerns?
"And why are you worried about clothing? Observe how the lilies of the field grow; they do not toil nor do they spin, yet I say to you that not even Solomon in all his glory clothed himself like one of these. If God so clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, will He not much more clothe you?" Matthew 6:28-30
"For You, O Lord, have made me glad by what You have done, I will sing for joy at the works of Your hands." Psalm 92:4

Wow! That is so cool....I wanna go now! Oh wait, this baby is currently stealing my jeans too. Well, onto maternity! :)I love how you had a picture of Luca and called her the jean stealer - very funny!
Sometimes I am blown away that the God that created this world, is in control of all the stuff that is going on in our world today is so intimate with us and cares about us personally. What an awesome God we serve. I am so encouraged by this story, bc you probably could have gone to the Lucky store and bought your jeans and totally justified it (I could have :)). But you felt convicted or whatever and you were faithful and God blessed you. That is so cool of God, when we are obedient He is so fast to bless us. So cool. :) Thanks for the post and the encouragement.
