Beginning each morning thanking God for another day of life helps believers realize how lucky they are.
We have a new chance to get it right.
To start over and make a difference in the world.
To touch someone's heart or ease an aching spirit.
Also, it's good to recognize when the Lord gives us even the tiniest of our desires.
When things like that happen, some people call them "God winks."
Recently, I envisioned a pretty doily on a table in the apartment living room.
Wouldn't you know it that at a church yard sale this weekend, I found a really beautiful, hand-crocheted doily.
All I could think of is how lovely it was and how many hours of work went into its creation.
How amazing it came to my attention when looking in a box at the sale.
That, I believe, is a God-wink!
Washed and even starched, the doily's price was 50 cents.
Thanks, dear Lord. And, thanks, too, for another day of life.
COULD YOU SHARE WITH US A GOD-WINK YOU HAVE HAD LATELY?
