Listening to the Spirit

Value Listening to the Spirit: On Friday morning, I packed the car with a skirt and a jacket for our day trip and an evening area reunion, the thought came into my mind to take my rolling brief case. For this trip my case carried my medicine, my IPad, my Dell laptop, address lists, note pad, word search book and extra pens. Often, my husband and I were known to carry the most unusual things with us, “just in case.” “No, not that heavy thing,” I thought. The thought came again and it was so strong, I followed the prompting and put the case in the car. After a full day running errands and visiting family, we finally arrived at our potluck supper reunion and were having a wonderful time laughing and talking with old friends. Then, out of the blue, a young man approached and asked if I had some Benadryl. A young adult had just ingested something that had given him an allergic reaction. I had what was needed, not an EpiPen, but an antihistamine that could help with a minor reaction. I value conscious listening to the positive promptings of guidance to do good things in our lives.
