I almost forgot I have a blogspot. And I haven't written lately in my other sites either. This time of the year, I don't need to voice out my primary excuse- that I cannot write because I don't have my own computer.
Since the latter part of last year, I had wished to have my own laptop. Since the old laptop my husband provided for us in the house was not working properly because the kids accidentally poured water on it, I had to queue for my turn to use my husband's laptop to get online.
That wish turned into a prayer because I could really see the need and convenience to have my own. For the year 2010 Faithgoals, I listed the desire to have my own laptop in my personal goals.
On the third week of January, I was blessed with a brief project (wedding coordination) and the couple gave me a generous bonus! It could almost buy me a mini-laptop! And I was ready to do that the following week.
But God had other plans. He wanted to surprise me.
My husband was invited to attend an event and to everyone's surprise, it was announced at the end of the event that they have a raffle. My husband was not at all expecting because his name does not often gets drawn in similar activities. That particular day, January 28th, his name was drawn and he won an HP Mini! He called me right away that I need not to buy one because "meron ka nang laptop!"
I was overjoyed when he finally came home with the laptop box. And equally excited were the children (because they can use it too for games and research!).
I couldn't believe that he was given the laptop for free! When I opened the box, he wrote a note: "an answer to our prayers." Indeed it is!
I thanked God for a quick answer to my prayer! Just barely a month from listing it in my Faithgoals, He gave it right away.
I can just praise God for this one of the many other breakthroughs coming our way.
God is good!
