Electrical Cord

So many of you have commented on my posts, which I appreciate immensely.  Now, consider passing this along to your friends so they can be inspire. Thank you in advance!

Here's another true story. I recently have read that when we thank God for blessings received more blessings come our way. 

My neighbor is a "jack of all trades" and was going to secure an electrical cord behind our shrine. I was just going to put electrical tape on it.  In the middle of this little project I had to leave for an appointment.  I found a most unusual reality when I came home!

He had replaced more than one electrical wire, new plugs and even buried it all underground instead of letting it hang like it had been.  This was a completely professional fix, much more than I would ever have imagined!

Plus, during my "inspection" his wife said, "your statue of Mary needs a paint job...I will do that Monday!" She loves painting and refurbishing.  To think that this grotto that my husband's dad built in 1955 was getting a completely new going over has brought me to tears and more gratitude.  Yes, I had a little chat with God immediately and continue my thanks this morning.  

If situations like this have never happened to you, consider some quiet time to have a little "chat" with God, reflecting on what blessings, however small or great, have come your way. Open the eyes of your heart to take in what more comes your way when you least expect it. God is any everyday God and offers more awesome realities even more than fixing an electrical cord!
