I am a person who when some one special gives me something...I will have it for many years down the road..til it breaks. I had this set of two angles with a small glass thingie on top that held a candle..JANE BRASWELL was going to throw them away and I had told her no Id take them, they set on my mantle everyday...well I have had them near 30 yrs... ALSO my sister TERRI gave me this unusual angle, it always sat on my mantle too, she held a candle and I have had it I no over 15 yrs... 30 some years ago TOM COWART (I no I spelled that wrong) gave us this beautiful picture of the tabernackle showing the glory of God.. We moved about a month or over ago...I wanted to dig up a small tree, a small bush ,and bring something from the home we lived in for 21 yrs...to this place we would be living now...needless to say the meaning behind thind matter to me rather than the things themselves.. So John Aaron used these hang up stick up things from Lowes that was suppose to hold 16 pounds and hung the picture over our mantle in our new home..at the time he was very doubtful saying I dont no mommal I dont think it will hold..but directions said it would. In the past at different time I have lost a thing here or there (because of someone else breaking or harming.) So I am sitting with a snack and drink looking at it all on the new fireplace mantle enjoying the view of it all... BOOM !!!! it fell..broke angles from JANE. brook angle from TERRI, broke glass every where on the picture but NO harm to the picture itself...normally it would have saddened me because of what each meant to me from who gave them. I looked at all the mess, all the good each thing reperented and the Holy Spirit spoke to me calmly he did not refer to past/ future..but He did refer to change and how we dont always need to hold onto ..but how we need to change and so I did not get upset, sad. Minutes later John A. came in looked at it and said I knew it would hold, and a few minutes later I tried to tell him the Lord spoke to me ..before I got completely to the end of it ...he said Mommal it is because there is suppose to be change and what he shared really touched my heart..because even he knew what the Lord was trying to do in our lives, a new chapter in our lives, new doors open, new freshness..WHAT A BLESSING!! This is for you to John Aaron...he was speaking to you too..lets listen..GOD is good all the time!!
