During a lull in the show recently I asked Sherry if we could pray. Among other things asking for a blessing for us that day. She made us some lunch and we sat behind our booth in the sun of this beautiful Arizona winter day.

Shortly after, two men came up to our booth, one of them pulling a red wagon with a piece of equipment in it. “Now that’s a sight you don’t often see,” I exclaimed. “Most of the time the wagon has a dog in it or maybe a child.” After some small talk we learned that these two men were selling the diamond wire saw seen here in the picture. They carved stone into pistol grips for guns and knife handles and found this particular saw not suited for the hard rock. It was designed to cut glass.

Now just before we left home for Quartzsite, Sherry reminded that she needed to order a new blade for her diamond glass cutting saw. The band blade of her saw had a tendency to break and being expensive, she wanted to look into another alternative. The saw the men were selling was perfect for what she needed. They related that this was their first time to visit Quartzsite, that our booth was the first one they came to after parking their car. And that they were not even going to take the saw out of the car and wheel it around. The price was well under what was fair for this lightly used machine. We were able to plug it in and test it.

Now that was the blessing prayed for without even knowing what was needed to be blessed with that day. Thank you, God. This story is to relate the blessing and power of prayer in our lives and to encourage all of us to pray.

We hope to see you here. Safe, fun and outdoors, we are at Tyson Wells, space V3-6
