Today, I got home from work and my husband said "I need to show you something...". So I followed him in to the kitchen. He told me that a lady that we don't know showed up at our door and gave him this package for me.... I opened this beautifully wrapped package, not having any idea who it was from. The package was full of HOPE! For me! The message said "We think you are extraordinary and just wanted to send you this little gift of hope. Praying for you and your family!" And further inside was a most beautiful necklace with a hope charm! I am still trying to process it all. I know this is the work of Jesus. Today he wanted to tangibly reach in to my house, straight in to my hands, and give me tangible hope. I don't deserve this, I am really stricken by this and in awe. My husband is trying to recover from cancer treatments, and a gift came for ME!?! It means so much to me to be remembered, considered, loved, encouraged, and for someone somewhere to think I am extraordinary. Some seasons are long, right? This is my Jesus in action. HE thinks I am extraordinary. It melts me to receive these words. I am going to rock my necklace, and I will feel loved, I will feel prayed for, and I will cherish the tribe of women that are working to support other women. I love this so much! And I will remember that our God is a God of hope. Oh how I needed this reminder. I will remember Romans 15:13 "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." Thank you so much 12 Ordinary Women. You are so much more than ordinary. With love, Andrea
