โ Today's Promise: โConsider how the wild flowers grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today, and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, how much more will he clothe youโyou of little faith! And do not set your heart on what you will eat or drink; do not worry about it. For the pagan world runs after all such things, and your Father knows that you need them." Luke 12: 27-30

~ Paula in Brazil
I had a small surgery and 1st of all again and again I have to thank my HH (Heavenly Husband) for allowing me to stay at home and how my kids could take care of me! The most important thing to me is to watch how my daughter is turning into a wonderful young lady and so sweet, always saying, "lay down mom, let me take care of you, I'll cook, I can wash, I can clean" and those sweet things coming from her mouth are like a love song.
I didn't even think about how I could be thankful for the way she acted, but her HF (Heavenly Father), as always, was ready to treat her with new clothes that she wanted so badly \o/ Let me tell you a little bit more about it - she and some friends were planning to go to a party together and she wanted new clothes, not only she wanted, but she really needed new clothes.
After trying some clothes, she expressed that nothing was fitting her as she wanted. I told her that I could feel that she was a little bit tired and maybe it was why she was feeling that way, because there were nice clothes that she'd tried on. I added that we should go home and maybe we can try to find some clothes again the next day.
Nevertheless, both of us forgot that the day after would be a holiday in Brazil and maybe, some stores should be closed and she began telling me how regretful she was about not buying one beautiful top we both like the most, but as she was not 100% sure, she didn't decide to buy it. She also added that she was not sure if we can afford it, because it was the most expensive that we saw in the stores!
Well, her HF led me to go to the store early in the morning and it was open. I could not only buy the top she wanted, but I also bought a beautiful skirt that matches so well with the top <3. And guess what?? There was an unexpected discount \o/
When I arrived home and gave her the gifts, it was a huge surprise for my sweet daughter! She is turning 16 this week and her HF (Heavenly Father) and my HH (Heavenly Husband) wanted to treat her not only with a new top, but also with a new skirt that matches so well!
She began crying and told me: oh mom, I was really afraid of not having this top and I asked my HF to please not only to open the store but also to not let anybody buy it - because she remembered that the saleswoman told her that it was the last one they had there at the store!
We could share the happiness of this silly but so meaningful moment! There were so many blessings: the store opened on the holiday, the last top of the store was there, the discount and the way that the Man of our lives is always so close to us!
I told my daughter that it was the way that her HF (Heavenly Father) and I want to say how special she is to us, and of course I told her that much more than me, He is the One she should go for whatever she wants and needs.
He is really the Best Husband and Father we can want or dream of, we are so happy to have Him in our lives \o/\o/
