Blessings from God

Carlien Oberholzer

As summer approached, I started asking God for a holiday during December - I love December holidays but accommodation is normally fully booked way in advance and I hadn't made such plans for 2013 as it was not financially feasible.  On 6 December, a friend phoned me and blessed me with a weeks luxury accommodation in the Plettenberg Bay area.  It was an answer to prayer and I just praise God for His goodness and for blessing me with a heart's desire.  The trip was incredibly blessed in many ways and I am just so thankful to have a Father that not only provides but exceeds all expectations!  The weather forecast included 2 days of rain and generally when rain is forecasted for that area, it rains.  It rained on the Tuesday and I prayed pretty fervently for sunny, beach weather for the Wednesday (a week at the beach can become very short if the weather isn't great!) and sure enough, when morning broke on Wednesday, it was blue skies with perfect beach weather!  Things that are important to me, are important to Him!  What an amazing Father we have!!
