I love seeing God in action. It can be easy to miss sometimes, especially when we tend to rely on ourselves to fix problems, or we worry endlessly about things.
Today was one of those days. One of our sons was stressing about paying his college bill but also wanting to get his beloved project car (a 1983 Dodge Truck) up and running. He is my kid that walks closely with God… it really is amazing to see. But even he has times where the weight of the world on his young shoulders can push him into the Eeyore stage instead of praising God for what he has.
After spending a few too many hours as Eeyore, and talking with both his Dad and I about life, he left to go to church. I was talking with my husband and found out said son was thinking his college bill for this semester was more than it actually is. To be sure I was correct I signed in to his college account to check my numbers and that was where God was waiting to surprise both my son and I.
There sitting in his account was not one, but two scholarships that neither of us knew about. This, along with his Pell Grant, took his bill down to a only owing 1/3 of what I thought he owned. An amount that he has in his savings ready to cover with money left over.
I called him right away. In hindsight, I think I should have waited until he was home so I could see his face. He was blown away. Literally speechless. And I’m sure praising God tonight as he worships with the praise team.
God is good.
All the time.
