Today I had a dozen errands to run
and things to accomplish. Plans weren’t
going “wrong”, but they weren’t going “right” either. (The definition of “right” means going the
way I wanted them to!) I had planned to be home around 5 p.m., feed
the dogs, fix dinner, prepare my papers and be ready for an 8 p.m.
meeting. At 6:30 I was still on the
road. L
I noticed Pippy’s gas gauge was
very close to the E mark. I generally do
not like to have the tank below ¼ full.
Assuming the gauge was accurate (?) there was maybe 1 gallon of gas in
there. The last time I fuelled Pippy was
last year, so it was time.
At the gas station I could NOT unlock the
gas cap! The key just would not turn the
lock. I made 7 or 8 different attempts
trying everything I could think of. My
thoughts were NOT pretty at the time. “CRAP!
I don’t need this delay!!! I’m
late already. There goes dinner. I need
desperately to go pee right now. Now I
will be ill-prepared for the meeting. No
time to call Doc and have him come help me.
Maybe not enough fuel to get home from here. Dang LOCK!!
WHY aren’t you cooperating with me? Etc., etc.”
I
looked down near my foot and saw a very shiny penny. My thoughts switched to much friendlier ones.
“Hi Angels. Okay.
Thank You for that reminder that you are present in ALL things. Are you listening right now?” I looked down and there was a second penny! I swear it had not been there a few moments
ago! I laughed and said “God’s 2¢
worth?” “OK Angels, my key is not working on this lock. I need a Divine Locksmith Please!". I inserted the key and the lock opened
without hesitation. COINcidence?

have been found every day so far in 2018.
It is now Day #203 in this latest streak of Consecutive Penny Finding
Days.
