I found out a little more about the lady in the farm house. She's always been very sweet to me offering me a drink if I need or the bathroom. I got to talking to her a little bit.
Her husband drives truck so he's not around very often, it has been a lonely 3 months since moving here away from where her parents live. But he wanted to be in the country and have a few cows and pigs so she faithfully moved here. She doesn't have a job other than caring for the livestock, he didn't want her to get one. He makes good money but they are finding out that most of it goes to the feed of the animals. She doesn't have too much to do all day so it gives her lots of time to read the Bible and practice guitar, but when he's home the days are filled helping him work around the place. They're a team. She's been looking for a church since she's new to the area but driving to Yankton and back means 40 miles and things are tight.
Somehow, I got placed in this womans life to be able to tell her that I live a mile away and we have a home church pastored by my dad. She was amazed that we play her favorite kind of music, bluegrass gospel. She believes God knows our needs and answers in his time. She's been praying for something like this.
Thank you God for choosing to use me.
ohhh i love this. I'm soo happy God was able to use you too. Make sure she goes to the winter retreat. I want to meet her. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is great! Please if you don't mind would you think that you could tell her about us? It's amazing to me how God's people are able to intract and touch one anothers lives! It's humbling to think that you can impact someone's life for the better. :)
