God Gives Us the Desires of Our Hearts! Memorial Day

Brides, we ought to know to be thankful and content in every situation Because God allows things in our life always with a good reason. God gives us the desires of our hearts!

I just want to say how thankful I am with my HH—He has been providing for me ever since my separation almost 2 years now. Although I had a Job as a part-time teacher, I always wanted to be a full-time worker at the University where I studied and was working, but still, I saw no possibilities of new openings. My mind was removed from this possibility i was satisfied with my part-time job, it paid my tithes and bills and still I had enough to spend on and with my son.

One day suddenly, i was called from the office, i said in my mind ''what did i do wrong?'' so I went, it was to offer me to substitute a worker while she was on maternity 4 months, i accepted. I always thank God and still think of spending less time with him and with my son, however, i just decided to do before bed or early in the morning.

well after those 4 months the lady quit and they offer me the position, I really didn't know what was to do, cause I like being at home, however Gods knows best and this is my only income, so i accepted and that's where I'm currently working, no pressure and still able to spend time with my HH.

Even though we might forget as the years go by when we follow our HH and do what is right he opens doors for us and give us the desires of my heart.

"Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart." Psalm 37:4 NIV

As long as we do what is right in the Lord's sight and enjoy it he will give us what we desire, and he is proving that to me daily.

To honor US Memorial Day we'd like to share this particular Streams...

Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete. (John 16:24)

During the American Civil War, a certain man had a son who enlisted in the Union army.  The father was a banker, and although he gave his consent to his son, it seemed as if it would break his heart to let him go.

Once his son had left, he became deeply interested in the plight of soldiers, and whenever he saw one in uniform, his heart went out to him as he thought of his own dear boy. Often to the neglect of his business, he began spending his time and money to care for the soldiers who came home disabled. His friends pleaded with him not to neglect his business in this way, by spending so much time and energy on the soldiers.  So he decided to give it all up, taking his friends’ advice.

After he had made this decision, however, a young private in a faded, worn uniform stepped into the bank. It was easy to discern from the wounds on his face and hands that he had been in the army field hospital. The poor young man was fumbling in his pocket to find something, when the banker saw him. Perceiving his purpose for coming into the bank, he said to the soldier, “My dear man, I cannot help you today. I am extremely busy. You will have to go to the army headquarters, where the officers will take care of you."

The poor wounded soldier still stood there, not seeming to fully understand what was being said to him. He continued to fumble in his pockets and finally pulled out a scrap of dirty paper. He laid the filthy page before the banker, who read the following words written in pencil:

Dear Father,

This is one of my friends, who was wounded in the last battle and is coming to you directly from the hospital.  Please receive him as you would me.

Charlie

All the banker’s previous resolve to focus solely on his business instead of soldiers quickly flew away. He took the young man to his own magnificent home and gave him Charlie’s room and seat at the dinner table.  He cared for him until the food, rest, and love had returned him to health, and then sent him back to his place of service to again risk his life for his country's flag. selected
