A Double Portion

How many have heard of the Double Portion spoken of in the Bible? 

Many times when the saints had suffered defeat or loss, the Lord restored unto them what was lost.  Many times, however, he restored to them a "Double Portion".  

How wonderful would that be if we received a double portion?  If we lost a contract and we received two to take its place?  Pretty great, huh?  I live with the idea when something is taken away, something better will replace it.  It keeps my spirits up and gives me the motivation to keep going. I feel there is always something better coming my way.

Today for breakfast, I broke an egg.  It was a double yolk!  I was excited and decided I could take that and say it was a blessing and I would receive a double portion that day. Worse case scenario, it is two yolks instead of one.  Better than one!

I was going to make scrambled eggs, so I needed more than one egg.

When I cracked the next one open, I was so surprised!  It, too, was a double yolk.

This has never happened to me before.  Two double yolks in two eggs is very rare.

So, I will take that Double, Double Portion and consider it a real blessing.  Today is going to be terrific!
