I looked and found shells that were close, but not the actual shell.... Well, you will not believe what was happened. I was making the numbers book and found one of my "yourembroiderydesigns" pack and started looking for something that would go with the number 6. I found one design with three shells. I was going to use that twice and thought I'd look further, when all of a sudden... There is was. The Lightening Welck. So now I have it. I stitched it out, but the stitches skip all over with the other two shells, but I think I can work it so I'm just getting that design. I'll practice first. :) The Lord works in mysterious ways! I just LOVE it when He does that...Terre

I really love hearing things like this where God is there before we know what we are looking for! Hugs, Judy

It's also wonderful to share it with other ppl and they actually recognize that it is God that does these little things for us. :)

I had a similar thing - was looking for an aero commander (it is an airplane) for hours for my Dad for Fathers Day. Could only find one that they sew on clothes for you - that would not work... Then I got to looking at my "yourembroiderydesigns" things just to be sure - and low and behold - there it was! Some of the stuff in there does jump all over (and can be off for the outlines, etc.) but this one was not too bad for jumps and it stitched out nice - sometimes things just work out.

yep. Mine stitched out great! But I know what you mean about the outlines.

I love this story. How long had you had that pack of designs? The Lord provides long before we have the need!

ALL the Time...

Terre, that is great news and so simple - when you stop and thing about it - how HE guided you right to it - while looking for something else - you found what you wanted - it was right there - all along. God is good.

Yep, HE knows ahead of time what we are in need of and will provide if we let Him. LOL...

Things just have a way of working out. Don't know how this works but we can always use some divine intervention.

God delights in the small things too.
