The rewards of obedience

“If you are willing, and obey,
you shall eat the good things of the land;
But if you refuse and resist,
the sword shall consume you:
for the mouth of the LORD has spoken!”

This reminds me of a cute little story from this morning. When I got home from Mass around 7:15 AM(and after having my cup of coffee…lol)…I started cleaning up the living room before the kids came down. It had gotten completly out of hand lately, with toys and school supplies everywhere. I got Sarah to help when she came down and we were both very excited when we saw the results of our efforts. Then I got a call from my sister in Toronto that she’d be coming for a visit in a couple of weeks. Sarah then tells me that she thinks that my guardian angel knew that auntie was planning on coming and had whispered in my ear to start getting things cleaned up…lol. I told her that that was a possibility, but I’m thinking that I had finally listened to the still, small voice of God and got to doing what I had to do…and God in turn rewarded me! Either way…we ended up praising God and being so grateful for His mercy!
