A little over a year ago, I was on the verge of being evicted and being on the streets then I got a job for the first time in over a year.  Last year at this time, I had a roof over my head but still had to depend on my sister for food money quite often.  In the past year, God has increasingly provided me with more and more blessings and even though things still aren't where I'd like them to be, I have plenty of food and my bills are paid and I have a roof over my head.


God has been so wonderful to me and I just had to share with all of you how thankful I am to also be a part of Gather and getting to know so many of you.  Thanks for your friendships and encouragement.

Have a marvelous Thanksgiving and savor the precious moments you have.

God answers prayers, he knows when we cant walk alone anymore and need to be carried. We may not always get an answer when we think best, but God knows what the future is and gives us our miracles right on time. I believe in miracles.
