Okay, so NOW WHAT?

I'm rather concerned about what is happening in my body.

So, I'm just going to say it here; that I realize something is not right.

I'm not sure what to do about it, but I'll try to pursue it.

Stay tuned.

Health a concern as of right now.

Good things to come.

Happily Ever After.

The Silent Prayer

He was in the grocery line in front of me; he only had a coupe of items.

When he swiped his card in the card reader, the clerk said,

"It only took some of it...you still owe $10.77," or something like that. I don't remember the exact amount.

But, as he stood there in that line, there was something about him...forlorn, sad, I'm not sure.

But, I prayed for him. I said, "Heavenly Father, let something good happen to him today."

As I was silently praying, his other credit card was declined. He was searching thru his wallet, when I said, "Oh, I've got this. I'll just pay for that."

He looked at me and said, "Thank you," and something else I didn't hear or understand, but it was sort of an apology.

"No problem," I said..."Stuff like this happens to all of us at one time or another. It's nothing..." And, I handed the clerk the money.

Somewhere in all that exchange, it occurred to me that something good had happened to that gentleman. And, it was such a great feeling to realize that.

God is so good. I was grateful to be a teeny part of that little moment.
