Abundance
Abundance was sooooo evident this weekend. Here is one example of where I saw it.
A woman called a Lafayette, LA Church in distress. Her mom died awhile back and the house was finally selling. Now, they had to come in from out of state, hurry and pack everything (they wanted to donate most of it), close on the house, and then get back to their home-town and back to work. They had about a day and a half to get it all done and she was kind of panicked.
But, she happened to catch a CUPS volunteer who was answering her church's phone. She said "CUPS will help" and she activated some other CUPS volunteers who spent Friday helping pack and clear the house. The CUPS warehouse was SOOO full after that.
Friday, in the late afternoon, as the volunteers were resting from their packing/moving job, someone knocked on the CUPS door. They'd just had a fire and had lost everything. They were lucky to have a house to move into, but needed beds and a couch and a table and dishes and...- really, they had to start over and they needed everything.
SOOOO, Abundance working at it's best: The stuff we just took in went right out the door.
I love it when it works out that way!
Blessings!
