Such a Blessing!

Last night, Mom and I had planned for her and Dad to take Melia to the "World Famous Lipizzaner Stallions" show at the Town Toyota Center. Previous to yesterday, I had planned on only Melia going because of Kiera probably not getting as much out of it as the ticket cost... But at lunch I spontaneously thought, "Hey, I want to go too. Let's just do it..."

So, we show up (the kids and I) and meet Mom and Dad at the center and get in line for tickets. A lady asks us if we need tickets.. yes, of course. To sum it up, she hands us 7 (but really 6- one was a receipt) and refuses payment for them. This is approx $134 worth of tickets, free!

We get inside and learn we are on the top level, in one of the suites, but someone told Mom and Dad (as I was waiting in line for my coffee :-) that we could sit on what I would call the balcony, VIP section, Very Cushy chairs, by the VIP club (concessions).

Let me summarize the blessings involved in how this evening came together..
1. Free admission- wow!
2. Private seating. Which means Kiera doesn't bother anyone but us with her talking... Isaac doesn't bother anyone when he hollers... I can feed Isaac comfortably...
3. We have a great view, and were able to run and buy drinks, popcorn, and cotton candy at a moments notice and miss but a minute of the show.

I am so thankful for His provision of such a great evening! The show itself was fine, but didn't even compare to the joy of sharing such an obvious blessing together at His expense! "Thank you Lord- You know when we sometimes just need a blessed break..."

"And You know when we need to hear from You--" Yesterday at church, I received my own special message. He had been preparing me all week for it, and I am so thankful that He is Faithful and True to guide and direct our hearts in His Will, especially against the onslaught of the world and the enemy. "For Your Glory, Father."
