The home next door to us was going to be renovated. It really needed an extreme makeover. Someone had purchased it at a good price and was planning an extensive rehab before selling it again.
Construction workers started working on it one day and then did not return for months, possibly a whole year. We found out from our Village Hall the construction company did not have the necessary building permits, so they were shut them down temporarily until they secured the correct ones.
Otherwise, haphazard work could be done which is dangerous to the occupants or neighbors. A collapsed roof, a door that opens the wrong way or windows that can't open could occur.
"And this we will do if God permits." Hebrews 6:3
Dear God, I want to know your heart and Word, so this verse will be true in my life every day. In Christ's name, Amen
Am I ever quiet enough to listen to the Voice speaking to me and willing to hear?
My car was in the body shop on a rainy day in September. I needed a few specific groceries to finish a recipe for dinner, but it was raining too hard to ride my bike. Trying to get something else completed on my list, I went to the garage to clean a little. 
Deciding to make an area in the garage for the camping equipment, I opened my husband's vintage cooler he had taken on a father-son fishing trip in June. Inside the cooler, I found a lot of canned and boxed groceries. He had obviously not used up everything on his fishing trip.As a family, we enjoyed a great dinner as we thanked God for his provision of unexpected food I discovered because of the rain.
"And my God will meet all your needs accourding to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:19
Dear God, In the morning, afternoon, and evening, may I often thank you and tell others all that you have done. In Jesus' name, Amen
