The night before we left Kentucky we had supper with some friends. While we were chatting at their picnic table in the backyard, their 8-year-old daughter disappeared for a short time and returned with a box in her hand.
She told us, "I have a box that I keep my loose change in. That way, when I see someone that I want to give money to, I have money to give!"
At this point, I started to reach for my purse to contribute to her collection. But before I could follow through she continued, "I decided that I wanted to give you my coin box to help you get to Albania."
Peering inside and seeing a dollar bill on top of the loose change she said, "There's at least a whole dollar in there!"
That dollar bill (which I kept before sending a check for the total in her name) is under the glass top of my computer desk, under my wrists as I type, so I never forget that God's provision and encouragement can come from the least expected places.
