One of These Things Is Not Like the Other! 01/15/2010
![]() I tried to start a new trend the other day. Derrick and I and the two little ones left the house to go run some errands and after getting about 10 minutes away from home I looked down at my feet. I immediately shouted, "Derrick we have to go home!" He of course thought something was terribly wrong. (You would think after being together almost 20 years he would know that I over-react sometimes!) In my distress I threw my feet up in the air so he could see the major problem without having a wreck. He laughed and said, "Absolutely not!" Fortunately our first stop was to the large Goodwill store off of US1. I made a bee-line for the shoes and would you believe they had two great, almost brand new, pairs of shoes for me that day! God is so good! Looking at the picture, you can tell I probably needed some new shoes anyway. These were my oldies but goodies. So comfy...I didn't want to give them up! God works in mysterious ways! Even to get us out of our comfort zone! I don't think a trend will transpire from my mishap, but I was reassured that when God is prodding you to give up the safe and familiar, He will always have something better in store! Notice I said they had TWO almost brand new pairs of shoes. He could have just provided one pair for me to have for that day so that I would not make a fool of myself, but He provided a replacement pair for each of my oldy but goodies! Don't be afraid to let go and move on! God wants to bless your socks off!!!
