The Goodness of God

God gave me a trip to Michigan in the Fall. I didn't ask for it; He just gave it to me. 

God gave me a new place, our place; I asked for it, I asked specifically that we could move in before Christmas, and He gave it to me.

God gave me a quiet neighborhood. I didn't ask for it; He just gave it to me.

He gave me a place where the trees change color, where it doesn't feel like summer all the time, where I can actually see and feel the change of the seasons.

And He gave me writing. I'm doing NaNo again this year. In July I didn't think I would ever do another NaNo. I didn't think I would have the time or the ability. For so many months, I couldn't have come up with either the time or the imagination and I thought that's how it would be. A few more months go by and here I am, able to sit at my computer and be creative.

God is so good to me. And I love Him. And when the next trial comes, I want to have this to see and read and remember. He was always there; and He was always good; and He always will be.

God loves me. And I love Him.
