Someone slipped this into my hand yesterday for our adoption, telling me this was her "Black Friday." She got away before I even realized she had given me money. I had so many thoughts running through my head as I opened up my hand and realized she had left me $100 bill. To me, this is just a picture of how God uses anyone who is willing to be a part of His Big Story. This lady who gave up something like shopping on Black Friday now has an eternal reward waiting for her. Not only that, she is a part of God's Story and Jada's story. This $100 represents so much more than it's monetary value, which is the reason this $100 bill brought me to tears. You see, God doesn't NEED our money. He can give money to anyone he chooses to give it to. But God wants each of our hearts to be in step with Him, and in His grace wants/allows us to be part of His Great Story. Of course it is a blessing to be on the receiving end of this, but so much greater the reward for the person who gave up something like Black Friday shopping. Blessings on you, my friend!!
