Today was our first fundraiser for our adoption. I was nervous. I've not ever managed a yard sale alone and really did not want to either. Each time I drove by the community signs about the upcoming sale, I felt a mixture of relief and a pang of something else.
Yesterday, it became clear that the pang was to take some of our stuff and put it out to sell. After more time in prayer...and eventual yielding I got busy getting our stuff together. I facebooked the sale and wondered how God was going to supply? Staying up way too late I finished the magnets that the kids helped me make and stuck them on the back of a cookie sheet. Pang...
He did.
We made $60.00 from the sale of items and a sweet surprise $10.00 purchase of magnets the kiddos helped me make. $70.00 towards our remaining fees. Relief.
Be Still and Know.
Our remaining fees are about $13,000.00 well $12,930.00:)
