Look for the blessings.
What unexpected
Things have you experienced
During this past year?
This 100 year old silo in Malta, Montana
is the source of our new wood floors.
Paul (standing on the top of the silo)
is repurposing the wood – one floor at a time.
He was scheduled to use some of the wood
to replace our wood floors last year.
Instead he fell, broke some ribs, and was
having massive headaches. Couldn’t work!
The unexpected fall caused the doctors
to take a good look at his head
to try and determine why the headaches.
The images showed a brain tumor!
If not for the fall, the tumor might not
have been discovered – at least not so soon.
After surgery successfully removed the tumor
and the ribs healed, Paul was able to work again.
We had seen the wood being installed
in the cabin of some friends nearby.
Bob fell in love with the character
of that 100 year old floor with the nail holes.
It was totally unexpected that we would
one day be enjoying that beauty in our home,
but it is done now – and Paul has totally recovered.
Count your blessings – they come in many forms!
“May he grant you your heart’s desire
and fulfill all your plans!
Psalm 20:4 ESV
on this day that started with snow.
God bless the blessing
of blue sky!
See how beautiful our floors look with
the warmth of the milk chocolate walls?
And it goes so well with the rug
we brought up from downstairs!
Tell me about an unexpected blessing
you have experienced recently.
It doubles our blessings
when we share them.
Thanks for visiting JanBeek
See ya tomorrow (God willing)
