'Heavenly' is Greek word epouranios, a look at this word's definition. 1) Existing in heaven a) Things that take place in heaven b) The heavenly regions 1) Heaven itself, abode of God and angels 2) The lower heavens, of stars 3) The heavens, of clouds c) The heavenly temple or sanctuary 2) Of heavenly origin or nature

I like 1,b,1 'the abode of God and angels.

When I read God's Word and see things like this I cry out, "What a merciful God we have." I do not deserve this amount of grace and hardest thing about my Christian walk is realizing what I really have in our Lord Christ Jesus.

I got out of my door and went to get in driver's door when I glanced down in front of me. There, pretty as you please, was a brand new gold Cross ink pen! Out of all spots my friend could have stopped, he picked (God moved on him and he didn't even know it) this spot. The Cross brand of pen reminded me of Cross where Jesus died for our sins.

A few months later, Lord told me to take tractor and bush hog and go mow down by my neighbors. There was an old cemetery on their property and road leading to it was overgrown. It was a beautiful place with hundreds of pecan trees and three or four old buildings. No one lived there. Mr. and Mrs. Fussell had passed and their children lived in other states. John, who lived in New York City, had asked me to keep lawn of brick house mowed and gave me permission to go on property at any time (to keep an eye on things).

I began to mow. I mowed around old buildings and cleaned up road to cemetery. I was thinking, "Lord, I've done used about $10 worth of gas doing this." As I made last round, I glanced up under a nearby pecan tree and saw a green piece of paper. I stopped old red Ford tractor, turned off green John Deere mower, and walked to tree. Sure enough, it was a ten dollar bill!

I could give you hundreds of more examples how God has given me "roadside" gifts and provided things I needed. Looking back, it still amazes me when I think of how much God cares for and provides for his own.

Matthew 6.33 "But seek ye first Kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you."
