I just read a post and HAD to share it because it makes me get all excited when I hear of the Amazing ways God speaks to us. His very specificity in what we receive and just how we receive it lets us know (in case there is ever a doubt) Who the real Giver is...
Here's part of the post (from an author who was up late for many nights trying to finish her book in time)...
Then there was that late night near the end, with just a bit more than a month before deadline, and I hung over the keyboard, afraid and bone tired and wild to give up, and I saw headlights stop out at the mailbox after midnight and a shadow get out and I stiffened. My heart folded in on itself, sucked in invisible, and didn’t move, until the silhouette opened the car door and the vehicle drove away. In the morning, the Farmer brought in what was in the mailbox. A note taped to a bag, blue ballpoint ink on a scrap of paper:
“The angel of the LORD came… and said, “Get up and eat… So he got up and ate and drank.Strengthened by that food, he traveled forty days and forty nights…” 1 Kings 19:8
Inside the bag? Angel food cake.
I had exactly forty days left to write.

Be encouraged! He truly sees every (big or little) trial we go through and hears every prayer (even before we say it) and sends little gifts along the way to remind and sustain us. :)
