Romans 8:28

I was enviously reading about Jill Connelly’s little jackpot the other day, wishing I were her. Some people are just always in the right place at the right time. (It’s hard to be one of those people if you don’t go anywhere…) Well, today it finally happened to me! Praise the Lord. I took a friend to the Salvation Army and got a front-door parking spot, which normally is filled with furniture.  I had two of my girls with me and we were not going to get out, but then I spied a nice tote full of Legos on a table right in front of my face!  I jumped out and grabbed those Legos, then went back to get the girls so we could go inside and pay for them.  Two dollars later we went back outside.  In the Legos’ place were now two cases of K’Nex!  We have not played with K’Nex before, but I always thought they looked kind of neat. So we grabbed those and went back inside. Three dollars later we went back out. I was pretty pleased with myself (as if I had anything to do with getting that blessing for my kids). It's nowhere close to Jill's deal, but it's a start, huh? Romans 8:28!
