I have had a hard time finding batteries for a little
flashlight that I have. It has three
teeny tiny button batteries and I can barely read the numbers. I ordered what I thought was the right
cross-referenced battery on Amazon. But
when they came in, they were too small.
$21.83 and too small. So I sent
them back. I looked online again and
found another replacement candidate. Ten
batteries for $4.95. A much better deal,
and they ended up fitting. Problem
solved. Yesterday, my dear wife woke up
with a low-grade fever. The thermometer
said 100.4°. The nurse at dialysis sent
her home with medication and orders to check her temperature at 1pm and
5pm. I wasn’t confident in our old
digital thermometer, so I stopped by CVS to pick up another one. Wrong.
They were sold out. And so were
the next three pharmacies that I checked!
No thermometers anywhere! But we
needed a thermometer today! At home, I
opened our thermometer to see what size battery it took so that I could order
one on Amazon. It was a GP-192, the same
as LR-41 the exact one that I already had for my little flashlight! There are hundreds of sizes of hearing
aid/watch batteries. But I just happened
to have a perfect match just when I needed it.
Coincidence? I don’t think
so. Romans 8:28 “And we know that all
things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called
according to his purpose.” By the way,
my wife is doing much better.
