Restoration

My pastor has been talking about restoration lately.  When God restores you, He makes you BETTER than you were before.  Before knowing anything about Top Flight, I felt that way about the way that God deals with my employment.  Every time I went to another job whether it was by being laid off, quitting or being fire (that only happen once because I couldn't sell 8 cars per month), my next job was ALWAYS better than the previous one. 

Of course God is ALWAYS improving Keana T. Clay, but that's not the focus of my restoration post today.  At least not His restoration of my character.  No, no. Today restoration of something else caused me to arrive at this post.

About a month or so ago my iPod was stolen. From MY CAR. While I was dropping my son off at school.  My key needs a new battery, so it doesn't always lock on the first go 'round.  This particular morning I left my iPod sitting in the front seat. Yeah, I know...NOT the smartest thing in the world to do.  Trust me, I've had to live with that poor decision everyday. I was SICKENED by it. I checked EVERYwhere for it.  Thought, maybe I left it at home.  Maybe it slipped through the hole in the bottom of my purse.  Nope.  Someone opened my unlocked door and TOOK it from the passenger seat. *sigh* MY GOODNESS. I didn't have the money to replace it.  I bought it as a Christmas give for myself in 2008. iPod Touch. 32 gigabytes. And I was JUST getting the hang of taking it everywhere I went. See, a little inside info about me. I LOVE electronics! Like LOVE 'em!  Most girls go for clothes, or shoes, but not me.  Gadgets were my weakness.  Anyway. Today, MUCH to my COMPLETE SURPRISE, my iPod was restored. I was given a new iPod. :O I was trying to settle into the fact that I will one day have an iPhone and having my iPod taken from me wouldn't be so bad. TODAY, I was given THIS -

AND CHECK THIS OUT...

SIXTY-FOUR GIGS!!! Doubles my previous storage!!!

God loves me! He REALLY does. Please don't mistake me for being superficial or materialistic because I'm FAR from that.  I always will be.  But let me tell you something. God SO cares about the smalls things that matter to us.  He loves us. We're His creation.  How could He not be concerned?  He uses people to show us. To my buddy, the BESTEST buddy EVER...saying that I'm glad is a SERIOUSLY SEVERE understatement.  Thank you. I know that you know it's not about the gift (though, OMGoodness it's BANGIN'), it's about the thought behind it. Love ya! And I can't wait for life to be wonderfully nice and random things like this are done ALL the time.
