~Braking For God~
The studio was in full-swing. It was a hot August day nine years ago, and the wholesale orders from the Atlanta Gift Show were piled high. The girls and I were filling trays of orders, and the boxes for UPS were stacked to the ceiling. Shops and catalogs wanted their orders ‘yesterday'. I was pretty organized and had ordered plenty of supplies before we headed into the mid-summer gift shows….so I thought. Then it happened: we ran out of a much-used jewelry finding. We needed 350 more to fill the orders we had. Thank goodness that the supplier was only an hour’s drive, so I decided, migraine or not, to drive there to pick them up.

I love this story Carol. I, too, look forward to the signs that God leaves for me, knowing that only I will know the meaning or importance of what they are. I love the personal touch He has for each and every one of us!

Wow. He really works fast, doesn't he? That is an amazing story! I love it! Signs are every where.
I want to hear that angel story too! I love angel stories. :)
Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my site and comment! :)
You have such wonderful stories! I could use a cardinal or two myself! Thanks fofr sharing.
I really enjoyed the Cardinal story. And I will pray right now that the Lord will give you the answer to your prayer. And yes, I do believe we have angels all around us - the Lord knew we would need all the help we can get.
Blessings to you

Hi ~ What a wonderful story. I must remember to be mindful of moments so I don't miss the signs. Take care.
Hi Carol,
here in Germany we don´t have cardinals. Perhaps therefore i´m so fascinated by them. They are so gorgeous,looking like they have a secret. This bird is looking sooo real...can´t describe
Thank you very much for sharing,Caroline
That's a beautiful story, Carol. I always believe that if your request to God hasn't been answered it's simply because God feels it impossible to fulfil. He obviously had a good think on this one and decided you deserve it.

Please tell the angel story!!! I love inspirational stories. Isn't it amazing how God shows up at the craziest times in our life?. Have a wonderful weekend!!!!

Oh I forgot to mention in my last comment that Cardinals were my granny's favorite bird and when my appendix ruptured 6 months ago there were 2 of them on my front porch when I came home from hospital. I think they were God and my granny welcoming me home. Have an awesome weekend!!!

What a lovely inspirational post, and God always answers prayer may it be a yes, no or wait (though we tend to neglect that 'wait' is also an answer)! The cardinal is such a beautiful bird!
Looking forward to that next story! Angels in kitchens...was she hungry?
