O give thanks
unto the LORD; for he
is good:
for his
mercy endureth for ever.
Psalms 136:1 (KJV)
Two praise reports, one
blog.
Yesterday, my Gayle
sent me a praise report via text. I
wonder what God thinks of technology ((we)
Change (He does not))? On her way home, a thousand things on her mind, she
noticed someone driving close behind as she neared home. It even seemed like
she might be trying for the same parking spot in front of the house. She was
getting annoyed.

It led to a conversation which led to a testimony. It was a ripple in the water. I wonder how far it will spread?
My son and I had
errands to run today, and have been annoyed all week because we’d been subject to
road closures due to utility work. I don’t have far to go when I run my
errands, but with detours it can take twice as long to get out or get home when
the straight path is blocked.
I sighed when I turned
before thinking, mildly annoyed at having not planned better in advance. As I
sighed, my son apologized for not reminding me sooner. I reminded him that it
was neither his fault nor his problem. We turned the corner, and there was, um, no
road block; no diversion. My son said it all, “well, amen!”
We can always choose.
My Gayle could have chosen to come out swinging on the offensive. You can never
be too careful of the crazies, some say. I could’ve thought sooner about my route, planned
ahead to avoid aggravation, but neither choice was in God’s plan. Thankfully,
both my Gayle and I were open, surrendered, able to give God the glory and
reap the reward. Thus ends the reports. Let the people say “Amen!” Let
the people say, “God is good.”
