Blueberry Blessings?

There they were - the biggest, juiciest BLUEBERRIES staring me in the face. I salivated and succumbed to my stomach's urging and frugal pocketbook to purchase my berry special $7.00 "small" batch of blueberry treats that would, in a few short minutes on my way home, satisfy my selfish and gluttonous craving! I strolled out to the parking lot and loaded the car with my new groceries, dropping them in one-by-one!

So, here I am in the kitchen, putting my groceries away in their respective place, cheerily humming, "I Found My Thrill on Blueberry Hill", and anticipating the savory taste of those sweet-n-succulent, summer-time, blueberries.....But, um, WHERE ARE THE BLUEBERRIES? I checked every empty grocery bag, as if they would magically appear....NO BLUEBERRIES! I ran out to the car convinced that they had hopped out of the grocery bag and under the floor mat....NO BLUEBERRIES!

I realized that I failed to double-check the cart, ***but, I always do*** to make sure that I got all of the groceries out of the cart and into the trunk. One very special, little grocery bag was left behind. I was BLUE! (Insert BIG sad face.)

Instead of getting mad and feeling like I had wasted $7.00, I stopped what I was doing. I bowed my little red, head and closed my big, contact-colored (I cheat a little bitz), blue eyes and prayed that someone - who may not have had the discretionary income to buy expensive blueberries - would find them and tickle their tastebuds with blueberries! I prayed that God would give them a SWEET moment of blessing in their life.

There are times in our lives when we are blessed with God's SWEET blessings, and there are times when God allows us to bestow sweet BLESSINGS. I pray that this was one of those serendipitous moments when someone received a BLUEBERRY BLESSING; a sweet memento from God! Hence, the title of my Blog....Blueberry Blessings!

Blueberry Blessing: "O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him." Psalms 34:8
