Muses

Musing on God’s timing.

Today was one of those days I was here and there, everywhere in my car.

Lost in thought about what I had to do, I left my rather large (you can’t miss it purse)in the shopping cart at the carrel in the Walmart parking lot. Some nice man throwing away a bit a trash called to me  about it — after I was already in my car about to sped off.

If the man didn’t walk to the trash can at the cart carrel at the time I was leaving — later on today I would have experienced that wonderful creeping panic that starts when you realize your purse is not within the four wall of your house or four doors of your car.

After retrieving my purse, I run downtown to deliver something to a friend.

Then I drive home, turn off the car, then spy a library book. (an overdue library book.)

I crank up the car to go to library and

dead battery.

Thank God I was in my driveway and not on the square downtown or in the Walmart parking lot.

I could have been without my purse, downtown with a dead battery trying not to have a large, raucous pity-party.

 Sometime God is just so very good.
