On occasion, like when I’m on holiday like now, I leave things until the last minute and, just sometimes, it actually works in your favour.<\/p>\n

A few years back, I had a great page-a-day daily planner that had daily Scripture verses, devotional thoughts and a whole bunch more stuff (even a reading plan) bound up in a neat book-sized leather-look cover. \u00a0Each year since then I have tried in vain to find the same planner, as I liked the layout, appreciated the quality of the binding and enjoyed using the planner.<\/p>\n

Today, with a little Christmas gift money in my wallet, I felt a prompting to drop in to a bookstore I have been to once before rather than my regular one run by my friend Bogdan<\/a>. \u00a0No sooner do I walk through the door than I see two copies of a planner sitting on the table by the door. \u00a0With a smile I realise that not only is this the planner I have been looking for but also that the store is, in all likelihood, the place I bought the original one three years ago!<\/p>\n

Needless to say, I heeded the prompting and took a copy of the planner<\/a> to the counter. \u00a0You can imagine the smile on my face when I was told that it was on discount too!<\/p>\n
