Phil, this arrived in my mail after I sent the LOL about your clothes 
pins sales.  Yes, I will trust the Lord with you that He will bring 
to you the funds you need by tomorrow!  With prices going higher and 
higher every day, it is only by God's gracious provisions that all of 
us aren't in the same boat with you financially.  I have one foot in 
that boat, but pray and trust the Lord for the fulfillment of His 
promises to meet my every need.

God's blessings, and my love,
Helen
