When I was growing up we had "church clothes" - stuff that made us sparkle! And then, we had "Ever day' clothes...the work attire....jeans and a t-shirt for me, thanks.

God has "sparkle blessings"...the stuff that shouts Hallelujah!!! loud and clear...like someone coming back to life. They are amazing testimonials.

But, what of the "work attire"? What are your 'ever day" miracles?

Here's one to start off...I do one to one encounters at work. Then I type the paper work. I love to write, so searching for those particular words, is par for the course and I enjoy it. One afternoon, not long ago, I was about to journey inward for a particular word...the Holy Spirit just handed it to me..."applicable". Perfect! But of course.... It doesn't seem like an earth shattering, movie making testimony...but I love the journey because of the roses along the way. I know God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit because of their constant presence...and presents of blessings. It means everything to me to know He's there. My "ever day" Savior who sparkles always!

Hubby has CFS, so what doesn't weary most people wearies him. Waiting for a bus can wipe him out. And yet, our VA Fodpital is strategically located to make it difficult to get to it anywhere in the area. Until about a year ago, it also had inadequate parking. Hubby could drive there, but, unless his appointment was 8 AM or earlier, it was 50/50 if he'd find a parking spot. He might have to park a mile away. Waiting for a bus exhaust him. Walking a mile is impossible for him, unless someone sets up a bed half way so he can rest for half a day.

To get there by bus requires transferring from one bus to another -- both ways. When I wait for a bus to just go up town, it's almost guarantee the next bus simply skipped coming, so I have to wait for the following one. (At our stop, it's supposed to be a bus every 20 minutes. I usually have to wait 40 minutes, so I really know they just skipped a bus.) But my pain doesn't get worse for waiting for a bus. It gets worse for traveling IN the bus, so it doesn't matter that much to me. To him, that would kill his ability to get to his appointment.

And yet, every time he ever had an appointment at the VA after 9 AM, the bus arrived right as he went to the bus stop and the transfer bus seemed to be waiting for him, when he transferred -- both ways.

Definitely God.

Seems to me there is a difference between a blessing and a miracle. Everyday blessings are more easy to count if one bothers.

From waking up, having home, family, food, job, whatever, to being with us through the day. Life is a daily blessing is it not?
