We were placed here. We know that for sure!
Meet our neighbor’s, the Scott Family! I met Jennifer, the mom, at church (years before our move) and our daughters, at that time, went to the same school. Life got busy for us both, she started homeschooling her babies and we began loosing touch.
One day, I took the kids to the toddler park here in town. There is a little library box just on the other side of the fence and I went to grab a book to read while the kids played. I grabbed a Bible study called Community: Your Path to Progress, written by Andy Stanley and the North Point Ministries. I sat down at a picnic table, opened the book and read more than halfway through it in about 20 minutes!! I was hooked! It was EXACTLY what I had prayed for and God put it right in front of me! All the answers I needed in that moment were right in front of me.
Then God put it on my heart to start this Bible study at our home and told me to invite Jennifer to come. When I contacted her and asked her if she would like to join me and I explained the study we would be doing, she stopped me and said, “Holly, I put that study in that little library box right outside the playground!”
What?!? * *TEARS* * Y’all, God did that! How amazing is that!?! And then, God made us neighbors too! Over a year ago when we placed an offer on the “broken house” we had no idea they lived across the street! I seriously can’t handle how good God is to us!! The Scott family has been so welcoming and kind to us during our transition here and we are so thankful for them!!
God is so good!
