I can remember when we hadn’t been in the ministry but about a year. The Christmas season was fast approaching, and Pastor Gene and I had a small Methodist church, and his salary was $0 dollars a month. We lived on offerings.
But we knew Philippians 4:19, That our God would meet all our needs through Christ Jesus. And that had to include Christmas for our kids. We didn’t have any money, but we knew that our God would get it to us.
I was at home one day when I heard a knock at the front door. I answered it and there was the wife of a couple that we had met months previously. She said, “The Lord told us to give this to you for your children’s Christmas.” It was $200.00.
She suggested we go to a toy store in Birmingham. I called Pastor Gene to tell him the great news and that the lady wanted to take me to the toy store in Birmingham. So, we went, and I got $200.00 worth of toys for my kids. Praise the Lord, we knew God would do it.
God is so good to us.
Merry Christmas!
Love Pastor Carol
