God's TWO FOR ONE SALE - Happening Now!

God's TWO FOR ONE Sale is happening now 

... in a town near you

... actually IN your town

... actually IN your home

... actually IN YOUR LIFE!

As I've mentioned in other posts, I get a few devotionals in my email inbox daily which I read & meditate upon. One that I subscribed to recently isn't really a devotional as much as just a scripture from God's Word. Each morning I wake up to see a Bible verse from K-Love Radio waiting for me. They have it formatted so that it's easily shared via Twitter & Facebook and so that you can actually view it in context in the Bible. It's amazing how many times the scripture chosen hits me right square between the eyes. 

The one shared this morning summarized how I am feeling today after my GLORY DAY yesterday (CHECK BACK FOR THAT POST - IT'S A WORK IN PROGRESS TODAY). I just had to match the scripture they shared with a picture of the sky that I took on a lovely August evening last summer. That seems to be my thing lately :) Here's what greeted me in my Inbox today from K-Love:

"Come back to the place of safety, all you prisoners who still have hope! I promise this very day that I will repay two blessings for each of your troubles." Zechariah 9:12 NLT

I'm one of those strange women who does NOT enjoy shopping - you know, sometimes I hear voices! But, seriously... who can resist two good items for the price of one!?!?! 

Thank you LORD... for one of the best ever two for one promises!! 

What a blessing to see it today!!

Sometimes I Hear Voices

The other day I was on the other side of town - where we lived for 15 years. I ran into a familiar store to pick up a few items. I was armed with my list. I only needed six items. Almost two hours later, I walked out of the store. 

I don't know what it is about shopping... but, it makes me even more crazy than normal. Shopping almost always makes me anxious. It doesn't relax me at all. It doesn't make me happy. It makes be feel out of control and helpless and very crazy!

As I was pushing my cart through the same clothing section for a third or fourth time, I noticed that I was talking to myself -- NOT audibly. I'm not yet THAT crazy! I was telling myself things like:

• You'd better check those racks again. You probably missed what you needed the first few times around.
• Are you forgetting to look for something? Take a moment. Think it through. Don't miss something. You know how you hate to shop. You don't want to have to return anytime soon!
• What about this coming fall? What will she need for this fall? Oh my goodness... what do we have at home for the fall??
• How much money is all this stuff going to cost me? Should I put a few things back??
• Didn't I just come in for a few items? Why am I here still?
• You know, it wouldn't hurt for you to look for something for yourself!
• Wow, the LOML is gonna kill me!
• Why am I here so long? I have things I need to do at home. Please... get... me... out... of... here!!!

As the questions came, I chuckled to myself and thought, "Yep, when I go shopping, I hear voices!"

I"m sure Paul wasn't talking about ME SHOPPING IN YEARS TO COME when he wrote these words...

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." Philippians 4:6 NIV

However, I'm thinking that God knew that for me... prayer & shopping would go hand-in-hand! I am NOT a fan of shopping! 

Well... except when I'm with this girl...

Best shopping partner... EVER!!
