Well I did go to the bank and transfered out of the savings account into the checking. I got really nervous when I saw my balance was around $105.00. I checked it at the ATM. After I got back from the bank-by the way each person working in the bank knows me on a first name basis which is so nice, I think, I ate lunch. I got to thinking and really prayed a bit to de-stress and to let things go a bit. I was so glad to have had socked that money away over time and not frittered it away on stupid stuff. I rememebered the bottle of perfume, the nice coat, the awesome new bedroom bedding and the really expensive earrings I saw in a catalog. So glad I passed right on by those items! Never even thought twice about them! I thought about the times I just put $20 bucks away thinking does this realy make any difference over time??? I thought about all the times God seems to be there when I need him and when I am sailing along, and the times, I ignore him totally. I got the mail and low and behold I received a check from a small real estate transaction that I got half the proceeds from. I get these here and there very sporatically because of my divorce settlement. There it was...the amount needed to cover the cooktop and the car repairs, just about to the penny.

It was a gentle and humble reminder that worry is is very useless and truly it accomplishes not very much. God is good-all the time.

So please know that your higher power or whatever you may call God is there and available. Ready and able.

Happy "be thankful in all things" Thanksgiving......
