We went back to social hall, and I saved a place on my plate for that pecan pie. I approached dessert table, and stared with disbelief...no pecan pie in sight! I swallowed my disappointment, and still thanked God for good food I ate. However, I still wanted that pecan pie...just one slice.
Monday morning, I awoke, made some coffee and read my Bible. The scripture I read was Mark 11.24 ("Therefore I say unto you, what things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye shall receive them, and ye shall have them.") I had prayed for that slice of pecan pie and I was still looking for it.
I finished my reading and went to get in my truck to go to town. I opened door, and there, sitting on front seat, pretty as you please, was a whole fresh homemade pecan pie. As tears of gratitude to Lord formed in my eyes, Lord spoke to me and said, "See, you only desired a slice of pie but I can give you a whole one!" Thank God that He cares for and loves us so much.
This event happened almost 5 years ago. When I woke this morning, Lord had me write this true story. Bless God if today, same neighbor came by and gave me another whole pecan pie as I was writing! That is God's way of confirming that I should write in a book this wonderful true story.
John 3,27 "John answered and said, a man can receive nothing, except it be given him from Heaven."
