While going through shop notes and tying up loose ends before Mark returns next week, I had a small but sweet reminder. A perfect reminder of how well the Lord handles details without me.

One of the products I needed was Heisenberg menthol. In tracking it down, I learned the company had been sold and is now owned by… Daddy’s Vapor.

That alone made me smile and pause for a moment of gratitude.

Come on, DADDY’S Vapor! 😀

What followed was even better. I developed a new relationship with Ms. Cammie and had a thoughtful conversation with their compliance officer, George.

I had a concern about excise tax charges—not accusatory, just honest—and instead of rushing past it, I took a breath and said, “I need to understand this better “ to myself. I recalled she told me she was new to the position and our industry.

That simple pause made all the difference.

By the end of the conversation, what had been charged at $2.75 per bottle was corrected to $0.25. A $2.50 difference, per bottle. Saving that hundred was nice, but being able to slow down and ask with more consideration feels like the treasure.

Integrity, clarity, and kindness opened the door—and God quietly took care of the rest. He really is that good

Thank you, Jesus, for always having my back. I love you.
