Im not sure yet how to post as I am still kind of new at this but I want to say THANK YOU to shabby.mama who was my tote partner, in december I was laid off, I have three small children and have used up my savings quickly,then things began to look up 3 weeks ago I was offered a good paying job, but monday just before the payday mark I was let go without a reason no one can tell me why other than I wouldnt be a good fit for the company nothing moe nothing less this was heart breaking! I need a job, so I was very down, I began cleaning up and gather the kids laundry and head off to the laundry room only to find out I only have enough soap for one laod, and 2 weeks until my husband gets paid, I am feeling very low now,then when the postman comes he has a pkg. inside was not only a beautiful tote but for some reason, Shabby moma included a bag of homemade LAUNDRY SOAP I began to cry how and why would she include that , Then I realized I wasnt alone and people ar eput into your life for a reason, Thank you all for being my family and sending much needed prayers and thoughts and sometimes bags of laundry soap you never know how much you may touch someones life and what hard times they may be suffering, Thank you again. Necobia |

Wow! Isn't that the neatest thing that that happens just when we need it? I love this! It never fails to amaze me how good God is. And how He uses people for blessings like this. So cool. This has happened to me and my family so many times.
I am so sorry you got let go from your job. I hope there is something else for you soon.

Lois...Isn't God good? Even though big disappointments happen, He says in the little things, "Child, I am there! And if I Am God in the little things, I Am God in those big things too!" He is an amazing Father!

So glad you found some fellow Farmgirls! You will be in my prayers as well. I've been in your shoes, it's tough, but with faith you will make it. I truly believe that God doesn't give you mountains that can't climb. They may be big and scary, but you can do it! "Cast all your cares on the Lord and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous fall." Psalm 55:22

Farmgirl's to the rescue! Isn't it funny how even a small bag of laundry soap can just make your day and remind you that your sister's are here. Hang in there Lois, the Lord does not put things in front of you that you can't handle. (with a little help from your farmgirl friends)

So often to we go back to the well known saying "Everything happens for a reason". We may not know why at the time being but I truly believe everything DOES happen for a reason. ((HUGS)) Danielle
