Before I married my husband, and I would go on dates, I never wanted my date to feel like they had to spend a fortune on me at dinner.  So, I would always find the cheapest entree (usually a pasta item) and order the next item up from that.  That way, it wasn’t obvious what I was trying to do, and my date would not have to break the bank to take me out! Yes, yes, very thoughtful, I know! 🙂  A little over four years ago, I sat down to do something, when all of a sudden the Lord spoke something to my heart.  He said, “Tami, I want you to order the most expensive thing on the menu.” I knew instantly what he was referring to.  The most expensive thing…He wanted to bless me!  Instantly, I said, “Lord, I want a son.”  There was no hesitation. You see, we had two daughters already, but our first born son was in  heaven…so I still wanted to have a boy.  But we had talked about being “done” with having more kids… and I wasn’t sure how to tell my husband that I thought maybe we should try one more time for a son.  When I told him, he looked at me with a smile and said, “I’ve been praying for this for about two weeks now and wasn’t sure how to tell you that I think we should do the same.”  Was God in it, or what?! That month we conceived our son.

God is so generous and His desire is to bless us with our hearts desire.  “Delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart.” Psalm 37:4.
