Don't you love when you find a "sweet deal" ... something exciting to you ... but something that other people might not think twice about.
I love when I find just the right book or outfit or see just the right movie or hear just the right song. It's they I whisper, "Score." Followed by "Thank you, Lord." SCORE.
Saturday night I attended a banquet fundraiser for a local Christian academy. I wore an adorable polka-dotted dress with Italian-made red shoes. I found the shoes on Clearance for $5.99. And the dress? $2.99 on clearance. Score!
Friday I took my daughter on a lunch date and then to the mall for new jeans. At the mall was a used book sale I forgot about. Among the books I picked up was a thick volume called THE WALL (for post-WWII series), a book called ALL THE THINGS WE WERE, written in the 1960s about the 1930s. A book titled INSIDE ASIA written during WWII. As you know, if I want to be true to the thoughts and feelings of people during that time in history the information inside these books are priceless. I got those and three other Christian books for ... $10. Score!
Then last night I rented a movie that turned out to be one of my all time favorites--SAINTS AND SOLDIERS. Well-written, well-acted, gospel message. SCORE!
So, what have been your SCORES lately? What do you have to thank the Lord for?
