Blessing 231 - Unexpected Treasures

My mom and Ate Del have been great friends for a very long time. Once again, my Ate Del sent some gifts for me through my mom when she went to visit her! So, here are my unexpected treasures that arrived today. I'm so overwhelmed with love!

Ate Del gave me these vintage white tea cups with saucers that came in an old wooded box. She said she was only able to find five pairs, but that really didn't matter to me. What mattered was that she and I both love "white" things and she thought of me.

She also sent a photo box and keepsake box where I can store my nature collections from my walks. On it where these words printed: "In all of nature, there is always something of the marvelous." Don't you just love that quote? How true it is when you know the One who created the marvels of nature!

Talking about the "something of the marvelous" ... my mom and Bill just came back from Maui and they gave us a huge box of 60 chocolate macadamias! Now my day was complete! I just felt so overwhelmed by all these blessings. I think the blessings that come unexpectedly are the ones that mean the most!

WHAT WAS YOUR "SOMETHING OF THE MARVELOUS" THAT GOD SHOWED YOU TODAY?

O LORD, you are my God; I will exalt you and praise your name, for in perfect faithfulness you have done marvelous things, things planned long ago.
