OK I will try again. Last time I wrote this got to the last word and the screen went blank. I hate it when it does that.
I had asked you to pray for me back this summer as my niece had lost her diamond wedding ring in lake Michigan, For those who did not see that posting. I will start over.
I was talking to my brother up in Midland , Mi and he told me my niece had lost her diamond wedding ring in Lake Michigan while camping with her family. I called her up and told her that I had a week off and would like to go up and look for it. This was in the upper peninsula. She was flabber-gasted. She said that it was the month before that she had lost it and there was no way I could find it. She said she had cried, and cried and cried. What do you think? Maybe a bit upset. I told her that I wasn't making any promises but if she could give me a general Idea then I would go up and look.
The next week and 6 hours later I found my self on a most beautiful and large beach. The water was warm and there was no waves. For those of you that have not seen one of the Great lakes. You can't see the other side. I looked over the area she thought she had lost it and was over whelmed. I started my search. After an hour of so I was getting a little over whelmed. Maybe this wasn't such a good idea. Then I decided to try an area that she didn't think it was in. With in 15 minutes I had found it. What a small ring in a big lake. Kind of like God and me I guess. A big God and a small me.
My niece was so thankful that she even told the story at her sisters wedding while toasting her sister. She not being a Christan emailed me and said "I was just thinking about you last night and thinking of writing you, as I gazed down at my diamond and tears welled up in my eyes yet again. It still hasn't gotten old - I'm still in awe of you and Jesus and the fact that it is sitting on my finger. I wish I had the words to express clearly, how I feel. For lack of anything better, it is like that new parent awe as you look at your baby. Not that I'm comparing my children to a ring but all that it represents, family, my marriage, love and this thing that binds us (yourself included) all together. "
So is God faithful? YES, He is
