MYSTERIOUS PULL of the PINK BRICK HOUSE
“Every day on the way to work we drove past a pretty PINK BRICK HOUSE.
SOMETHING INSIDE PULLED us to it… as we admired the charming property surrounded by a white fence.
One evening, heading home, my husband had a sudden IMPULSE. He immediately made a U-turn and said, ‘I’m going to see if those people want to SELL that pink house.’
I was incredulous. Imagine knocking on the door of strangers, after dark. I was NERVOUS and AFRAID.
A frail elderly man answered the door … his attractive gray-haired wife standing behind him.
My husband said, “We’ve admired your lovely home… wonder if you’d like to sell it?”
The couple looked at each other with STUNNED expressions.
They invited us in. There was a crackling fire in the fireplace, cozy furnishings, and a BIBLE lying on the table.
The man smiled and said, We were just KNEELING here in PRAYER, asking God if we should SELL our home. That’s when you KNOCKED on our door. We would have to say, YES!’”

God loves it when you STEP OUT in FAITH … getting out of your comfort zone. That’s when He can show you that He’s right there with you, HEARING the DESIRES of your heart.
And when PRAYER is involved, as it was with Donna and the people in the pink house… GET READY for Godwinks and blessings!
Here's a thought, wouldn't it be nice to have the dictionary DEFINITION of a GODWINK right on your COFFEE MUG ... as a daily reminder to look for your Godwinks? This is what that looks like.
Wishes for bountiful Godwinks.
