Attitude adjustment
Changing my attitude has been the best thing for me. For the last couple months I had a complaining spirit. I would complain about everything. I was so sick of life not going my way. Well, when I went to church a few weeks ago there was a word spoken. The word was that if you have a bad attitude you should stop and put on a garment of praise. So I went home and through thought and prayer I did just that. I slipped on my garment of praise and have not taken it off. I wrote all my complaints on one side of the paper and then on the other sides I wrote out my prayers of thanksgiving for each complaint. My heart was in the right spot finally. I didn't expect anything in return. I just knew that my mouth was not honoring to the Lord. Later that week I was talking to friend and telling her that I hope the Lord blesses us with a portable dishwasher come canning season. She told me that her parents had one that they didn't need and that it was sitting in their front yard for the last 2 weeks getting ready to go to the dump. She called her parents and they said take it. We rescued the dishwasher and brought it home. It is only 5 years old at most. We had to change the nozzle on our faucet to make the dishwasher fit. So for $5 we were able to get our dishwasher. I know that when I changed my attitude and the way I look at life the more clearly I am able to see the blessings of Christ. Thank you Jesus for the dishwasher!

Praising the Lord that I can give Ben a Birthday Party! Everything that happend to be the theme he picked was 75% OFF!!! I was shocked because were definately tight right now. I started Thanking the Lord out Loud and putting all the items left in the basket. I told Ben later that the Lord supplied his Birthday wish list and to Thank Him. Such an awesome feeling when He provides when we know we can't do it without Him. thought I would share.-KNG
