of time to go to the mall this afternoon.” With that, she smiled one of 
those contagious smiles that I have not yet been able to resist. 

Driving to the mall that afternoon I had a variety of thoughts jingling
through my mind. One predominant thought was, “How much is this going 
to cost?” 

Although my wife thinks a lot, this is one area where her thinking never
penetrates. I suppose that is my responsibility to think about the 
money aspect of everything. The problem is, the more I think about it, 
the less I really like it. 

As we were coming home after supper at the restaurant my wife said, “I
was just thinking what a wonderful afternoon this was. I'm glad you 
came up with this idea.” 

I pondered about that for a while and could not remember when I came up
with this idea. I thought it would be better for me just to go along 
with her thought, which would make everybody in the car happy. 

As we were driving home, I happened to think of a passage in the Old
Testament. “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your 
ways my ways, saith the Lord” (Isaiah 55:8). 

I may not be big on thinking, but I take comfort in the fact that God
thinks about me all the time.
