Recycle, Reduce, Re-use

I've decided to rename our church the "Hand-Me-Down" church. We're like the second sibling who rarely gets any clothing or toys retail. We've gotten chairs and tables from a church up north, building complete with murals in the children's classrooms from a church who merged with another, and now a sound booth, another projector & lighting from the church next door who just disassembled. I can't help but chuckle as Ryan pulls up to church with a truck full of wood from the discard pile at work for some new handyman project here. We may not have much cash flow but God seems to like to provide for our needs through other means.

The lessons I'm learning:

1. Don't put God in a box as to how He should provide.
2. Be grateful for ALL His provision!
