the search for a grey sweater...

Sometimes I wonder at myself, how I can doubt God's faithfulness in provision after I have seem Him provide for me and others over and over and over again. Yet still, I of little faith... somehow doubt Him.

I've been looking for a grey sweater for quite a long time now. Every time I see one in the store I consider buying it, but each time it has been a bit pricey and I feel God tell me to wait. So I wait. And wait. And wait some more. And wonder if I will ever get my long-desired grey sweater. My friend & I now call it grey sweater shopping when we go in looking for one thing and come out with something else besides the "grey sweater" haha.

I'm sure there are those of you who can relate to me with the whole "grey sweater" shopping thing. It's good for a laugh and laughter is good for the soul... so anyway, back to God's faithfulness. I asked Him last week for a grey sweater and a pair of jeans... two things I've been needing in my wardrobe for some time. In the last few days I have recieved a great pair of name-brand jeans that I love and fit me perfectly and three grey sweaters of various shades and styles. It's awesome. I just love it. My half-hearted prayer asking God for what I needed actually showed results! I shouldn't have ever doubted that it would, but I did and I'm once again blown away by the way God provides. It's just so cool to me... thanks Jesus!

So the next thing I am asking God for? My plane ticket to India!!!
