I had to write about today's God wink story...about earrings. Yes, earrings. My friend Christina sent me these earrings at the end of my treatment. However, they got lost in the mail. I got a replacement sent right away but then last week the original ones made it to me in the mail. So then I had two pairs. Christina called them, "giftables" and so I left them on my counter and prayed about who to give them to.
My friend Taylor's name kept coming to mind. She is the wife of our music pastor. She recently returned from a missions trip to Uganda with our church. As I was thinking of giving these earrings to her I remembered that all the jewelry from Noonday Collection is made all over the world. I thought, "Oh maybe the earrings were made in Africa?!" Since that's where Taylor went on her missions trip. I pull out the earrings and see, "Style made with love in Uganda." I start to tear up. Not only Africa, but Uganda. I pulled myself together write this all out in a card to her and put the earrings inside knowing God means for her to have them. There's more. I took the earrings over today and later received the rest of the story. Taylor told me that while she was in Uganda her favorite, everyday earrings broke. She's been trying to find a new pair since. She was shopping for some last night. No amount of emojis can express the joy shared between us today. It is such a privilege to be used by God amen? Friends, God cares for you. He sees you. In the smallest of details He is there. My cup runneth over today. Thank you Jesus.
