Pomegranates and Prayers

When I look back just over the last couple years of my life I can see how kind and graciously God has answered so many of my prayers, even the simplest. In April 2011 I had no clue what was next.  My jobs we insecure, we were outgrowing our rented condo in Woodbridge, Ca, and the way things were headed were, simply put, uncertain.  But God, in His providence, had so many amazing things in store! Fast forward to April 2015 and I am living the life I had always dreamed of. I even find that God has answered on a regular basis the smallest of prayers: My youngest's cough to not turn into Round 3 of a cold, a way for my daughter to dance, new jeans, perfect play set for the yard, opportunity to go on a cruise, chicken to come out tasty from the oven, a whisper of truth to a friend who was confused, and countless others.  A recent prayer was that our pomegranate harvest would be plentiful.  I specifically asked for 20 juicy fruits on one tree in particular.  Well, I check and there are well over 20 in bloom! God is so good and his mercy and grace is abundant.  I bet you can imagine that there is WAY more to this life story but for now I will keep it short.  God is always good, we are always loved.
