Still they kept a comin

I must admit we were a bit excited about what happened at our Market yesterday.
Merril and I had a time praying for lots of things and it included God prospering the market we were to hold.  We had basically just about run out of things to sell.  It had been a deliberate policy as there had been ginormous amounts for sale, to the point that at one stage we had almost too much to be stored.
The way we get stuff is to let people know we have a market where everything is $2 with a few bundles of stuff being $5.  We say that if people have anything they would like to donate we will sell it with all proceeds going to the food pantry we run.
We had asked again recently as we were light on goods.  Two people said they had stuff and left it for sale.  We ended up having three tables of things (we do not take furniture or cloths as we do not have storage room and clothes get out of hand really quick.)  We have just finished disposing of all the clothes that had been supplied.  We give that away and I must say it has proved to be a popular table.  However, this time we did not even have a table out as we had no clothes to give away. (I don’t think people listen to me as I say no clothes and they keep coming anyway. This time there were none.)
Our goal is a certain very modest amount per day.  We make that amount without fail and the average would be just higher. 
So after our pray time and putting stuff out we waited.  People just came and did not stop coming.  The pantry operator was agog at the outcome as were Merril and I and the secretary of the church.  We took more than three times as much as normal.  That had never happened before.
Ok I admit it I am one happy and thankful camper.  Merril and I head to Daydream Island this weekend, so we will not be having our usual Saturday market.  But we go knowing we took in for the pantry more than three times the usual daily taking.  The pantry is happy as are we. And so will the pantry patrons be.
