Tiny Refrigerator Warm Our Hearts
I (Cindy) was asked today what I was thankful for and my first thought was -- a refrigerator. I am sure most of you would not have thought of that. Most of us don’t think much about a refrigerator. In fact we probably take it pretty much for granted. About 2 weeks ago, my refrigerator stopped working. The light was on but it wasn’t cold. Fortunately a friend of mine had a little tiny college refrigerator, so I had space for milk and eggs and a couple other things. It was amazing how fast I had to eat my leftovers. Nothing got moldy or old in the fridge. I used every ounce of space I had. When God provided a new refrigerator, I was blessed. If I had gotten a new refrigerator immediately, I would not be so thankful. A refrigerator that keeps things cold with enough room for food for my family – it makes life easier. I thank God for the week without a fridge and I now appreciate in a new way something God gave me. There are lots of blessings from God around us. What can we be thankful for today?

Yep - been there - our electricity went out earlier this year for 5+ days and boy did I realize how dependent I was on the refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine, computer etc. God taught me a HUGE lesson on gratefulness - specifically I'm grateful to live in this century - the women of old had it tough! hehe!
