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.

    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

    I think perhaps HE knew this and just didn't "let on" Clever thinking...thanks I enjoyed

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