I held my infant son in my arms. I cried out to God. "You know this is his last diaper, Help me!" I plead.
There wasn't a cent in the bank. My spouse at the time, had stopped working four months prior. I was "on bedrest" in a high-risk pregnancy, and unable to work. We were poor.
I was isolated, so no-one but God knew that I had placed the very last diaper on my son.
I argued with God, "you know he will wake up soaked, from head to toe. What do I do? Please help me".
The next morning, I opened our basemement suite door (which was a very private entrance not visible from the street) There outside my door I was shocked to find a large box wrapped in black garbage bags. I was baffled. I carried it inside and opened it up.
I gasped in surprise as as I saw the craziest thing. It was a giant unmarked box full of diapers. But these weren't huggies or pampers... They had no labels, no branding. They were pure white unbranded loose diapers, as if they were taken off the factory line before they could be branded.
No one I knew would have been able to get these. And no one but God knew my silent prayer and plee. Yet here, was the answer!
I tried to sleuth out the source of the diapers but no one knew, or even understood how a person could get their hands on these miraculous diapers that were a perfect fit!!!!
I was so filled with joy as I woke up my sweet son and got him ready for the day. Jesus loves you, I exclaimed as he smiled up at me with those sparkly brown eyes, and chubby cheeks.
" Jesus loves you and he heard my prayer and provided miraculously."
Who is this Jesus? He is the one who heard my silent pleas and provided exactly what I needed most inexplicable way. He is merciful. He moves hearts to do his will. He speaks things into being. He is a good provider. He loves children.
He may be the God of the universe, but he took time to hear My cries and answer.
