"Blessings at Weaver’s Pond" by Doug Fincher

“God will supply your needs…...” Eph. 4:19

March 8, 2022 - An empty stomach and a place to play hooky made Weaver’s Pond “the place” for my brothers and me. With a few hooks and a can of worms we often caught a needed meal for our family of eight children.

At eighteen, I hitch-hiked to Springfield, Missouri to enter The Baptist Bible College. With the help of some kind motorists and roadside apple orchards, I arrived there with my three dollars still in my pocket. Our dishwashing jobs at the Colonial Hotel guaranteed peanut butter and crackers for me and several other lean preachers.

A picture of Weaver’s Pond always flashes thru my mind when I return thanks. Maybe it’s God’s reminding me that while He hasn’t always granted my wants…

He has faithfully supplied my needs.
