When i see our fresh eggs frying in a pan and realize how rich they are in vitamins with no chemicals in them, I am so thankfulto our heavenly Father, He truly is our provider! Just today my mom called and had prepared a goody box for us, she works at a consignment shop that has low prices plus she get a discount, so she is able to bless us with many things that we could not afford for ourselves! I love to hear of past times, and of how God has met needs, as He has and cotinues to be so faithful to us! as always I am so uplifted and encouraged with my visits here. i was also encouraged by how God found your land and home and with a lot of hard work your dreams have come true!

Only the "rich" people I knew had houses. My dad probably earned a salary comparable to my husband's, but we never would have dreamed of living in a house. Now, we are raising our family in a house with two and a half acres, and I feel very rich. We haven't been able to fence in the property, and our barn is in poor repair, but we are slowly working on making the best use of what God has provided for us. It's a learning process. Where did you live in CA? We were about a mile or so away from Calvary Chapel of Costa Mesa. I miss the weather, being near the beach, the fabulous Mexican food, and my family members who still live there, but I am happy to be where God has placed me. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15619632060758642925noreply@blogger.com
