Three days ago, the hungry of Delaware were blessed with a miracle.
Bags upon bags of potatoes were donated to the Food Bank in Delaware, and its 440 hunger relief program partners throughout the state. It's a really incredible gift, especially during a season that is so far from the Christmas holiday (which is when many people think about donating food and toys to those in need).
The background to this story is not one of simple generosity. On Sunday, July 10, Samuel Frymoyer somehow drove a tractor-trailer (more commonly known as a semi) into a freight train. The details of the crash have not been revealed, so I have no way to paint a better picture for you. The two biggest highlights are that no one was injured in the crash and that the contents of the tractor-trailer managed to spill onto the ground.
The trailer was filled with potatoes, which were then donated through the initiative of the Department of Transportation.
It seems that all it took was something random for a miracle to occur.
I might offer that this little incident was not actually an accident (in the big picture, that is). God created this little blessing, and does so more often than we tend to think.
When was the last time you witnessed a blessing from God, either for yourself or someone else?
Did you stop to give Him praise?
