You might remember my post on Southern Living versus Midwest Living and how I was lamenting the fact that I was switching.
Let me just say: God rocks.
Shortly after that post I cancelled my subscription.
Or so I thought.
Today I received a we-want-our-money letter from SL for this year's issues. I called them to re-cancel. When the woman on the phone asked me why I was cancelling I told her it was getting too expensive (having gone from free - Thanks girls! - to $12 a year, to $36). Of course, she asked if I was interested in any of their other magazines, and replied, no, that I had just subscribed to Midwest Living (as I live in Iowa) and didn't need Coastal Living.
Then a random turn of events.
She asked me how much I paid for this past year's issues. I said that it had been the in ballpark of $12 for the year.
Know what she said?!
Ok, I can honor that same price for this year too, if you'd like.
If I'd like?! Oh you betcha I'd like!
I am now sittin' pretty with one more year of Southern Living (do worries Jonathan, it was only $11.88!).
God totally answered the desire of my heart! I so wanted to keep my subscription and without even knowing it, He totally made that possible. Had everything been cancelled as I thought, I wouldn't be able to rejoice in knowing just how much My God cares about the little things.
God rocks.

Maybe the debil made it happen so you would be distracted by earthly, Southern pleasures. >:)
