The Lord's Provision! Mysterious & Perfect

I am so thankful to the Lord for His kind provision!
I gave up my job in December, knowing the Lord wanted me to spend more time with the children. I didn't know it would be THIS much time!  And so we have been on a rather tight budget since then, a testing time for me - some months I have trusted in Him & been utterly amazed with His provision of free food, almost on demand!
 Other months I have worried, borrowed & gone overdrawn...  I wouldn't trust Him, I basically rejected His offer of blessing.
Today I finally got confirmation that Fred will receive DLA (disability living allowance) which is a very reasonable amount.
 I AM SO BLESSED!
WHY DID I EVER DOUBT HIM?!

I have lovely friends.

I had a lovely chat with my friend June yesterday, I have hardly seen her since she had her 6th daughter on new years day. We caught up & encouraged each other, commiserated over our oldest children becoming teens and discussed our responsibilities in church.
Last night I got help filling in Fred's DLA application (disability living allowance) I think he will get some small amount of money each week to help us manage all the extra time & energy it takes to raise him compared to a "normal" child of his age.
That would be nice, though I can say with assurance we can certainly live without it!
Thanks God for my lovely friends! x
