It's been a month since that nasty hail storm that wrote off all our vehicles and caused damage to shingles, windows and more. While it is a pain having to redo some of the things on the house, it has turned out to be a great blessing as well....
Bye-bye car! The car has been threatening transmission problems for years despite how new it was. Thanks to the hail storm we have been able to upgrade to something more reliable.
Adios to the truck as well (not the Toyota - that is somebody else's vehicle) This truck was pretty old and was fast becoming unreliable as well. Thanks to the hail storm we were able to upgrade our truck to a newer cleaner model!
What a blessing that storm was. A blessing in disguise you could say. So many blessings we are receivers of are so easy to overlook because they come in the form of natural and normal every day happenings. I am sure I have overlooked far more blessings than I have acknowledged at the hand of the Lord. It is my hope that I can come to recognize all blessings in life, every day, for what they really are! Even hardships can be blessings. What great comfort and joy there is in that knowledge!
