I realized that I almost forgot to share a blessing…though it may seem minute to some…my eyelashes are starting to grow back!!!
Right after my being struck by lightning my eyelashes were so brittle that they would break off if I touched them. My eyelashes are blonde so they are hard to see anyways, but to have them breaking off to where I had none in some sections and very short in other sections was very embarrassing if I dwelt on it very long. I couldn’t even wear mascara for quite a while.
Well, I remember somewhere reading that coconut oil would help strengthen and grow your eyelashes. I decided to give it a try. I took a small amount (a couple of drops), warmed it up, and dropped it into my mascara bottle. I used the wand to mix it up and then shook it. I applied the mascara as I normally would. Nothing more.
I only wear mascara a couple of times a week so I didn’t really think about it much. As I was getting ready for church this past Sunday, I was applying my mascara and noticed that my lashes were starting to grow! I was so excited I made sure my whole family knew!
Finding blessings even in the smallest things! #thankyouLord
“This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope.
It is of the Lord’s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
The Lord is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.” Lamentations 3:21-24
