Camp Verde, Texas
Monday, August 22, 2011
When we woke up this morning there was no way to know the blessing we were about to receive. We were on the motorcycle by 8:30 to beat the heat. We went once again to the Camp Verde store to get coffee and tea and enjoy the morning. The setting at Camp Verde is beautiful and it's a great way to start the day. As we were sitting on the porch swing an angel approached us and started a great conversation. He had arrived on a motorcycle and his name was Tommy. He asked us where we call home and we explained that right now the road is our home. That's how it began. When he was younger, Tommy had also spent 9 months on his motorcycle traveling around the US. He shared many awesome stories and told us of his wife, kids and grand kids. He praised God for all His provision in his life and how God continued to grant him blessings everyday. About an hour and a half flew by while we enjoyed his company. What a blessing this man was to us. He gave me a cross to keep in my pocket and he prayed a prayer of blessing over us before he left. I was overwhelmed by his love and by this experience and I began to cry. He will not be forgotten and I hope we will be able to see him again. If not on this earth then in heaven for sure. As he got on his motorcycle and we watched him ride away I felt like I had known him forever and I didn't want to say good-bye. Thank you, Lord for bringing Tommy into our lives. It was perfect timing because I needed a miracle and the Lord sent an angel. Lord, thank you for the blessing of Tommy. Please bless him and his family.
Until next time,

First, I thought you spent your time at the Dam Store?!?! Second, what a great story! He probably rode off thanking God for putting the miracle of you two in his path this morning because he was needing a miracle. I love how God works!
God is AWESOME!
Isn't it nice to know that God is always on time! He knows what we need and when is the best time to give it. Be blessed on your journey today! I love you guys!
I continue to pray that you'll will touch others, each day as you did me
