Waiting At the Car Wash

One day I asked God if I could have a cheese sandwich and a cup of coffee. No problem David, God said, coming right up. He then organised a miner to get the ore to make the things He needed. He then organised a farmer to plow the land to grow the wheat to make the bread. He then organised a farmer to milk the cow to make the butter and the cheese. He then organised a farmer grow the beans to make the coffee. He then organised a driver to transport all the items to the kitchen. He then organised a chef to make the sandwich and the cup of coffee. He then organised the waiter to serve it up on a tray just for me. I didn't dare tell Him that I had changed my mind after all that trouble! Thank You Lord, it was a lovely snack. While waiting at the car wash. © Dave Timperley 2012

Again, thanks for stopping by. At our local carwash you get a free Frape' [iced coffee, very refreshing] while you wait, and that is what set me to thinking! God Bless. Dave

He always knows. I guess He laughs when we make plans. Thanks for stopping by. God Bless. Dave.
