The other day a friend sent me an email about an unexpected blessing she received. She told me about how she went into a convenient store and she lost her credit card. After looking all over the store, the cashier asked if it might be under a rack at the front of the store. She looked behind it to see what looked like her credit card...underneath the rack. She pulled the rack out to find not only her credit card, but also a $5.00 bill. Like she said, it wasn't much, but it was an unexpected blessing, in an unexpected place. Finally, she said something that has stuck with me since. She said, "I guess sometimes we have to lose something in order to find something more that God has for us." I thought about how loosing Little Danny has changed my life. I now cherish life more. I have felt God's love, peace, and comfort in my life like never before. God has opened my eyes to more of His unexpected blessings. If we just open our eyes, it's amazing how many blessings we will see. I also know that without a doubt God has something more for me. I am just waiting in anticipation to see how abundantly he chooses to bless!
Lord, even though we may find them in unexpected places, I thank you for your abundant blessings. I pray that you help each of us to not over look the unexpected blessings that you place in our lives.
