Speaking a good word puts goodness in you


There's little that brings me down more than when my Husband is angry or upset for any reason.  Though it doesn't happen often, it did tonight.  He went to run some erronds and his temper showed in his eyes.  He said he was angry but didn't really know why.

I knew, there were several little things from a hot long day at work, kids fighting, dinner not on the table, kids bunk bed broke again, couldn't buy what he wanted to buy because the wife said those dreadfull words.  We can't buy more stuff right now, we're broke. I knew the knew, all those things add up real quick in one evening.  But what it is that God works in our lives when we leave our front door.

When he comes back that spirit had left him, he was still tired from a long day but something was at ease about him.  Thats when I saw the daisy next to a coffee for me.  There was able to get a little something for me.  When I asked him where he got the flower he told me the story.  While he was at the drive through coffee shop a man called out his name from the other side.  He was an old aquantaince ridding bikes with his daughter. He stayed there for a moment chatting about why we changed churches and invited him to our new found family and the mens group that they have.  He turns to the attendent at the window and appologises for taking so long, she doesn't care she was listening.  Besides it's 10pm not a lot of people are out getting coffee.

That's it, that's all it took.  Breath out, breath in, connect with the world around you, share in the blessings you have found.    God is so good.

I know it may be a silly little thing, but it made my heart sing so I wanted to share it.  May your day be lifted and your burdens made light.
