A thankful and an appreciative heart!


Good Afternoon, or whatever is the best greeting to you, in your part of the world!

Talk / write about everything tid happening at once! When I was vacuuming (we were having a showing on the house), there was an odd burning smell. I immediately turned off the machine; and we are thankful that the vacuum person came by yesterday. It turns out it was the 'fan belt' that had stretched and burned out; plus the power vac was due for it annual service. So, it was a 'Blessing in disguise', as the expression goes.

We have also had an ongoing plumbing problem with our kitchen sink and downstairs bathroom. Alan has been turning on the garburator daily and then scooping out the excess water. We have been able to use our dishwasher, fortunately. Plus we are grateful that we have a generous supply of water; as in other parts of the world, there is none etc. However, the plumber is now here; and it looks as if the garburator was not installed on a 'slope'; but rather flat; hence there has been quite a bit of a water buildup. Hmmmmmm. The plumber was kind enough to fit us in for today; and due to a cancellation, he is here earlier. To me, that is also another 'Blessing in disguise', that the plumber is resolving the difficulty.

Tidbit - We have much to be thankful for! ie. 'Blessings in disguise', and fresh Spring flowers etc. Good to always be appreciative of our daily Blessings.

Bittid - 'Praise Him In ALL Things'. When you Thank Him, you are instantly uplifted; as if a huge burden(s) has been removed from your heart. Also, your life becomes further simplifed; as you are Relying Upon Him; and not upon your own understanding. 'With Him, ALL Things are Possible'.

Not a lot of other new matters; save that we are trekking onwards, with our joyful focus upon Him to Direct and Guide our path; as 'He IS the Way, the Truth, and the Light.'

We are still enjoying the abundance of beautiful daffodils; and they have really added a cheerful touch to our home. A good friend sent me this lovely photo image; and our house is filled with these gorgeous flowers!

Will keep you posted, when we know more.

Peace and God Bless.
