All I Can Say Is WOW!!!

Good Morning Everyone,

I am sure you are thinking my title is in response to writing two blogs in a week but you would be wrong.

Yesterday was an unusual day. I walked to the mailbox(which is not normal) to get our mail. In our mailbox was a big envelope and a small envelope. Inside the big envelope was our claim information and a couple of checks to help begin repairs. WOW!! Inside the little envelope was a card from a family that my sister worships with at the Shawnee Trail Church of Christ in Frisco Texas. We have met this family two or three times. They have a daughter the same age as my sister's youngest and they play soccer together. Inside this card was a check for $100.00. WOW!!

Fast forward until about an hour before writing this blog. I was talking with my sister on facebook and telling her about my unusual day yesterday. In the course of this conversation my sister informed me that the husband and father of this family(Mike) lost his job last week. These people are so faithful and so generous that even facing rough economic times they saw fit to give April and me $100.00. WOW!! WOW!! and DOUBLE WOW!!

My sister also informed me that Mike has a job interview with United Way in Dallas today. This is a second interview which means there is a good chance he could get this job. Today I am pleading with anyone who reads this to to make today a WOW day for Mike by saying a prayer for him and his family. I hope you are all as blessed by this blog today as I have been blessed from my unusual trip to the mailbox yesterday. WOW!!!

Be Strong and Courageous,
Paul
