My "Oh No!" Moment

As I was out running errands today, I drove by a 70% off Albertson's Sale, and just HAD to stop! Of course, once I took a look at the prices they had marked way up, only to mark them back down to above retail value, I left the store, stowed my cart, grabbed my coupon binder and walked to the car. I then realized that my son had dropped my keys into the shopping cart.

So, instead of carrying my coupon binder back up to the store to search the carts (mine had been taken by another shopper), I placed the binder on the roof of our SUV. I finally found my keys, and drove off to my next stop. After driving home and being home for a few hours, I realized that I couldn't find my binder... hmmmm

"Oh No!" was the first thought that came to my mind as I realized I had left it on the roof of our car... so much work put into it... and I thought for sure that there were a million coupons scattered across the roads between Albertson's and my house.

I looked out at the car, and there on the roof, lodged in the luggage rack lay my coupon binder!!! "Thank you, LORD!!" was the first thing that came to mind then! What a blessing to not have lost all of that hard work in a flustered moment of searching for keys. And best of all, as soon as I brought it inside, it started to sprinkle. Yet, another blessing! God is so good.
