Serendipities

Friends,

We received a call from Kim's parents on Monday that their friends Bill and Sally had some furniture (a couch and two chairs) for us. All we had to do was go over and pick it up. They said the color for all of the above pieces was aqua and we thought -- "wonder if it will match our glider rockers?" We called our friend Johnny who gracefully was willing to go to San Angelo with us to help retrieve it. We went on our way and arrived safely. Then we enjoyed the blessing of a wonderful visit and dinner with Kim's folks. When we arrived to pick up the furniture, it was all ready to go. We had been talking about getting another couch -- and here was one as a gift; and not only this, the couch and chairs would be a perfect match to our rockers! We expressed our gratitude and then we were on our way home. Serendipities -- the little blessings from God that happen along the way in our daily walk with Him. How often do we thank God for "the little things" that He sends our way? We need to be discerning and thankful for how wonderfully the great God of the universe cares for even our most minute needs. Thanks Lord for the furniture, for the visit with Kim's parents, for our visit with Johnny, for Bill and Sally and their generosity, for the good dinner, for safe travel, for places to stop along the way, for wonderful weather...where do I stop?
