God really is STILL Good...

A quick note to remind you that God is good, and still good in the midst of my life. I don't really know how consistent I am at believing it but when I do i try to tell someone about it- today i am telling you.
when you say it out loud it makes it more real somehow. He is good, faithful, loving, and providing all i need.
Just last week I was having a mini-melt down inside my head about how in the world i am going to pay rent this month and within in minutes of me having these crazy negative scenarios bouncing around in my head, my friend calls. She needs me to babysit all day, AND get paid!!! now this may not be a huge deal to you to get PAID to babysit... but for me it is. there are so many babies and so many families and so few babysitters that we just volunteer because lets face it... church planters (who i babysit for) aren't RICH!!:) but my friend and her husband aren't church planters and have some extra cash to actually pay me!!! woohoo for God meeting me and reminding me he does provide... He makes all things work together for my good- great song by the way!!!

just had to share!:) hope everyone has a great day

This happened a few weeks ago but i'm just now getting around to posting the pictures. Most of you know I don't have a weekly job so when I need a pick me up I try to be outside enjoying the sun. Portland has been described as a city inside a park... VERY TRUE. I happened upon this neighborhood park in my travels to the library and stopped to read my new Real Simple magazine (thanks mom)... and then all of a sudden out of the corner of my eye i see this.... Are you kidding me??

I do not recall anything this cool at my neighborhood park. How fun!!?? it made me laugh and brightened my glum mood for not having a job:)
