A small blessing

A couple of weeks ago I went into the kitchen to get a snack and realized that the ceiling above the sink looked wet. Not something that is exciting to discover but I called Steven and we checked it out and found that the ceiling wasn't wet then but it had been wet at some time. We looked around, found no other water damage and decided to just keep our eyes on it. A few days later, we saw that it was wet again so we checked some more and saw that the shower in our bathroom was leaking outside the shower and it was leaking through the floor onto the ceiling beneath it. We took all the old caulking off and reapplied new stuff, waited 24 hours for it to dry, and then tried again. No water on the floor or on the ceiling!!!! The problem was fixed..........until Saturday evening when we were eating supper before church and I heard a funny sound. I asked Steven what he thought it was and he said, "It sounds like water running." I looked up, and indeed there was water running - from one of the lights in our kitchen! Right away, he jumped up and checked it out. It looked like the water was leaking from the drain in our shower. He fixed the new problem and now we have let water run in the shower for a while to test it and so far so good. What is the blessing in all of this? The water found the weak spot in the ceiling to come through (the light) which was directly above our sink so the water ran right into the sink! No other water mess to clean up.... a small but exciting blessing in the midst of a mess.
