Great is thy Faithfulness!

Great is thy faithfulness, Great is thy faithfulness; Morning by morning new mercies I see!! All I have needed thy hand hath provided. Great is thy faithfulness; Lord unto thee.

Culpepper Lawn Care- Caleb & his brother's business during the summer....
Culpepper Deer Processing- Caleb's business during the winter....

Once the "grass cuttin" was over we were super excited for "deer season" to hurry up and get here. There was a two week break between the two so we spend a lot of time getting his processing room prepared; which included not only cleaning but some extra money had to go to new signs, seasonings, fat ( gross, I know ), etc...

Bow season comes before gun season. Unfortunately there are not a lot of bow hunters in Hamilon, Al. So along comes Friday, the first day of Bow season and we only get ONE deer. Hey, that's better than nothing! So we just thanked the Lord and hoped for more the next day. By Monday we had received 5 deer! Although we were so thankful for more deer...we knew it wasn't enough to pay our bills. Worry is not something we allow into our home anymore! We experienced some true refining in the "faith" department last year so I just spent extra quality time in prayer and reminded God (although he very well knows) that He has all of my trust. I'm so thankful I have a Faithful God! He will NEVER fail us!

Tuesday morning, although knowing the mail doesn't come until noon, I walked to my mailbox. Even now I'm not sure why...I opened the door and nothing was there. But as I had been walking towards the mailbox I heard that old hymn "Great is thy faithfulness!" (song at the top). I continued to sing the song for the next two hours straight. I even walked in Caleb's processing room and told him, "God is taking care of us. No worrying!" I got lost with the Lord and enjoyed time well spent with Holy Spirit. So, noon rolled around and I walked back down to the mailbox singing my new favorite song! I opened the mailbox and there laid a small envelope with nothing but a $1200 check. Great is HIS faithfulness! I'm not sure why I'm sharing this story today but I pray that it be a testimony of faith to someone.

Everything that I need He provides. Everything that WE need He provides. The past year and half that I have lived here we have never been without. Whether it be through someone else, or just a complete miracle that cannot be explained, God has taken care of us and He always will. He'll do the same for you!

On another note, I wanted to say to those of you who have tried to comment and were not able to...I think? you have to have an account also. But I thank you for going the extra mile and texting me or commenting on my facebook. You've been an encouragement whether you knew it or not to keep blogging! I thank God for each and everyone of you! and I pray His blessings over you! Be encouraged today. God is faithful.
