Today, while walking around the yard with Duncan I was looking at all the patches of clovers that have begun to grow since my Dad last cut the grass. Then I found it. As we all know most clovers have 3 leaves. Now, when a clover with 4 leaves is found we have determined that this genetic mishap supplies us with luck. Well, what about when there are only 2 leaves?? No, not when one leaf has been pulled off...but just 2 leaves total? Because when I was looking at the clovers today, I found one! And a few hours later...I got a phone call.
A very important phone call... My visa is ready! Amazing! It won't take 5 weeks! So immediately I started to look for plane tickets back, since I had to have an itinerary to pick up the visa. Originally I thought, wow...there must be something to this whole clover thing. Then I realized...it wasn't the clover...(it's never the clovers).
I had talked with my friend Eileen even closer to the time I got the good news and she told me that she would pray about everything. Well let me tell you, Eileen has a powerful connection with God and I believe this is why my visa made it through today. She had prayed for a miracle, that God would surprise me and I'd get to return sooner than I thought. And that exactly what happened. I will be leaving this Thursday!
Just a few minutes ago my sister also reminded me that my situation had been put onto multiple prayer request lists, so I was 'well covered.' Thanks everybody!
So, when it comes to putting my trust in something I'm going to stick with what I don't always have to search through the grass for hours to find.
