Memorial Box Monday - The Television

My dad lives with us and has his own "suite" in our house.  He has his bed, desk, La-Z-Boy recliner and TV all in his room.  The TV he has is pretty old and doesn't have inputs for a DVD player.  On Saturday, CP said to me "Why don't we look for a TV for your Dad for Christmas?  One that he can hook up a DVD player to?"  I told him I thought that was a great idea and I would look for one on Craigslist later that day.

Time got away from me and I didn't look up a TV.  That afternoon, SG asked to go for a bike ride.  So, she and I hopped on our bikes for a ride around our neighborhood.  After about 15 min into our ride, what did I see on the side of the street?

A TV

With a big sign that said "Works, on/off button broken"

I knew immediately how to fix that problem, so I got on the phone and called CP.  I told him what we had found and he came right over and picked it up.

So, a picture of a TV goes in our Memorial Box for the fantastic way God provided.


While you are here, why don't you scroll down and read about families that are fundraising for adoption and consider whether you are to be a part of a Memorial Box Monday for them?

Awww! I love how God works :)! I also LOVE the idea of how your sharing families with needs! Awesome ways to give! We have a "Shopping with a Pupose" blog post, but this is JUST SUCH A NEAT IDEA!!!

I am so thankful to see how the Lord provides for others and to share how He provides for our family, too! Such an encouragement to my spirit! Thanks for sharing!
