| A very interesting blessing happened to me today. I went over to the store to cash in soda cans and buy some groceries. When I went I knew I didn't have much money, even so I wanted to pick up a couple of things. So I figured as long as it was within my limited budget I would be fine. Well on the way to the store I came across a soda can laying on the sidewalk. Figuring, "Hey, an extra dime," I picked it up. I then arrived at the store, cashed in the cans, went and got my stuff, and began cashing out. Much to my surprise however the bill was a tad higher than I'd expected. Even with the bottle deposit slip having knocked the total down a lot, it was still rather high. Even so I opened my wallet and was quietly praying that I'd have enough. Sadly, I didn't. The bill was for $14.56 and I only had $14 even in my wallet. So I went digging in my pocket and came up with, get this...64c. It then dawned on me at that moment that, had God not put that extra can in my path, I wouldn't have had enough money and would've actually been short by 2c. Now how's that for an interesting Saturday blessing? I went to the store unknowingly 2c short and came home 8c rich. Isn't God pretty cool like that? :) |
