What an unexpected blessing! / myLot

So today was a tough one, with the aftermath of a migraine. I had to go to the doctor though, and when I went to pick up my two prescriptions, I was dismayed to find out the cost was $52 (insurance only paid for one of them, not both). After I used my credit card, I was wondering how I was going to cover that at the end up the month, until I got home. Checking my email, I saw one of my sites had gone ahead and paid me $65 for a product study I had done for them. I was so excited! I don’t know why I worry when I do! I’m very thankful. Okay, what was your last unexpected blessing?

I'm glad that blessing made its way to you. I feel fortunate that I have a very mild dose of Corona virus. And that staying home for all these days is no hardship.

I’m sorry you have to deal with it at all, but so glad it is a mild case.

I think God delights in surprising us. Really happy for you. I guess my cancer free mammogram report was my latest big, no, gigantic blessing. Not unexpected, but not taken for granted.

@AmbiePam My hip, praise God is much better, but now for several other issues to improve. But still lots to thank God for.

Yay, it all worked out.I'd have to think about that one...plenty of blessings I think, but not so many that are totally unexpected.

That's something nice to hear. When I reached home after a long stay with my son, my bedroom fan gave off, I had to replace it and repair the old one and get it fitted in the portico. I had to get my water purifier servicing done. However this month I got a increase in my family pension and could manage my finances.

@AmbiePam I am thankful to God for that but the prices of commodities are increasing too.

Sorry you had a migraine. I'm glad you got money to pay for your prescription. Haven't had any unexpected blessings; but I'm glad you had yours! Hope you are having a good day.

That was perfect timing getting paid by your online site. It's funny how things like that happen. I won't go off on a tangent but I hate that prescriptions aren't covered by insurance and the "out of pocket" expenses are hard.

Yes, I’m thankful my insurance covers some prescriptions, but I wish they covered more than six. Of course some, they just won’t cover period.

@AmbiePam Migraines are nasty buggers. They are not something a person can get used to.

@AmbiePam I do tune in to the You Tube channel to read God's blessing advice that when we need His help, He will provide.

That's wonderful, sorry about the migraine though. One of my latest unexpected blessings was only having to pay $28 for my replacement glasses frame. I fully expected it would have been more,with most things going up ridiculously these days. @AmbiePam

@ambiepam Why do we continue to worry even when so far everything has worked out? “But seek first God’s kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.” Yet we are surprised when it happens!!!

I was sitting in my doctor’s office, looked up, and instantly saw a picture that said, pray. So I did, and I really should have remembered it always works out.
