Broken and Fixed 2/8/13

A gift broken, fixed, and thrifted

115. Broken - Our marriage that reached the point of brokenness a few years ago. We dealt with an addiction and unfaithfulness. We even separated for while. We both purposed in our hearts that divorce was not an option. We have come back from that time of brokenness to a time of repentance, repairing, and renewal. We have come so far and continue to grow closer to The Lord and to each other.

116. Fixed - An iPod that was left in a pocket during a wash cycle. We found it in the dryer and immediately put it in rice. I prayed a lot. My son uses his iPod for school. A few days later we took it out and it works perfectly. I was not looking forward to buying a new one but The Lord chose to fix it.

117. Thrifted - The almost $200 Breville juicer that we found for $40. We had been praying for a few years that we could afford a nice juicer. What an amazing blessing from The Lord. We have used it many times. My husband and I are getting ready to do a juice fast next week.

I love Carl because he makes the time to get up early on Friday mornings to meet with other men in the church to encourage each other to grow in The Lord.
