EVERYTHING'S GONNA BE ALRIGHT

Ever have days when some things, not all things, just some things don’t seem to go right? I was having that kind of day yesterday. I was a bit pushed for time…a bit stressed trying to pull everything together to go to a ladies conference today.

“MY” plans were to end the day by going to the first football game of the year in nearby Hawkinsville. Not that I’m that great of a football fan, but since it’s our granddaughters last year of high school I wanted to hear her play in the band. (BTW they creamed Hawkinsville!)


As I was on my way (running late) I realized I didn’t have any cash and knew I would need some for a ticket. I stopped at our local grocery store, only to realize I didn’t have my checkbook. So, back home I went to grab another checkbook.

When I went back I decided I might as well get a case of water for the ladies who would be going on today’s outing. “Sorry Ma’am. You can’t write that check for $30 over the amount. It can only be written for $29.11 over.”

Grinning from ear to ear I immediately heard God’s voice. “I’ll take it,” I replied. “That $29.11 sounds like Jeremiah 29:11 to me. I know the plans that I have for you says the Lord. Plans for good and not evil, to give you a future and a hope. Yup. $29.11 will be perfect!”

Don’t you love it when God assures you that everything’s gonna be alright?
