My Craigslist Miracle

Everyday Miracles

One of my favorite sayings is that "infinite patience brings immediate rewards".   A little patience goes a long way.

I was searching for that special hard to find item and after almost two years had given up.  I would check Ebay, online sites, and Craigslist.  After finding the exact item, I was soon disappointed to learn that it was already sold.

Just yesterday, I checked Craigslist and found my item.  I quickly contacted the person, no picture was posted, so I had to go on the details and description provided.  I decided to take a chance and go check it out that evening.

Walking up to the open garage, I saw a van in the driveway and two people talking in the garage, at once I thought it's sold, someone beat me to it!  Thankfully, the person was picking up another item.

Upon seeing the item I almost jumped for joy, I knew it was exactly what I was looking for but even better.  I didn't realize that the item had a feature that I really liked.

Better to give than to receive.

Driving home I was giddy with excitement.  Not for finally finding the item, but in knowing how happy my wife would be.  I couldn't wait to surprise her.

Gratitude.

When I first saw the item in the garage, I knew that found it and said a silent Thank you.  God had delivered that item that I had long visualized and searched for. My prayer was answered.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.

With Love,
