What Pond?

When my neighbor answered the door, I said, “I didn’t know you had put in a little pond.” “What?” my neighbor responded. “I heard gurgling water and thought you had added a small pool in your backyard.” “No, we haven’t,” she said as she looked across the yard. Her husband heard us, came and looked and then had to admit he had left some water on in the back for more than a week. After he turned it off, he said, “You earned your pay today!” I laughed. Unknowingly I gave them a better Christmas gift that day than the little one I had in my hand. God works in interesting ways!
