My Father's Storehouse--By Christine Tate--United States

My Father's Storehouse

From heaven's vast storehouse
My Father provides;
He dispenses His blessings,
right where I reside.

When I stop and contemplate
how my needs are met,
I stand in amazement,
I've not one regret!

There's food on my table,
a roof o'er my head,
clothes for all seasons
and a warm, comfy bed!

His mercy and grace
are spread far and wide,
and those who believe
are well satisfied!

Christine Tate has been writing since 1994. She's the mother of  3 sons and has 8 grandchildren. She was widowed in 2007 and met her husband Artie, a widower with 6 children & 12 grandchildren, in a nursing facility where their mothers resided. They've been happily married 4 1/2 years. They describe their meeting as "God's divine appt." because of their faith, and the fact that they swore they'd never marry again.
