I Found God In My Mailbox

I have not always been a Christian....I did not grow up in church...not to say that my parents did not tell us about God because they did, but going to church was just not something that we did regularly. In 2006 my husband and I were at a very low point in our relationship and I was lost...confused and ready to give up but there were a few things I KNEW ... I KNEW that we had only been married for less than a year....I KNEW we had a one year old daughter and I KNEW that out of all the things I wanted to be in life a single mother was not one of them. That much I KNEW but I had NO freaking idea what to do about any of it. One day as I opened up my mailbox I discovered that someone had put a postage stamp on a flyer and mailed me a little piece of hope. Inside my mailbox there was a flyer for an upcoming sermon at a nearby church. I have seen these types of flyers a million times and each one found a nice cozy home in the bottom of my trash can. This flyer was different...I felt it and I KNEW it. The upcoming sermon was titled "How To Save ANY Relationship"....I took that very flyer to my office and put it on my desk and spent the next few days just staring at it. I KNEW I had a lot to lose but I didn't realize at the time what all I had to gain. I KNEW my husband would not go with me so one phone call to my mom later and Sunday morning we were sitting in the pew. I KNOW it wasn't the sermon that changed my life and my heart but it was God. I have come along way since that Sunday morning. I have joined a church...met some AMAZING people....learned to pray (THANK GOD FOR PRAYER!!!!) and I was even baptized. I don't always know why he does what he does but what I do KNOW is that my life is RADICALLY different and will NEVER be the same all because I checked my mail one day. Ain't God awesome!!!
