Donetta makes jewelry and before she left for the bloggers’ retreat she brought a few pieces to give away. She thought when she grabbed the zebra pin, it was an odd one, but she brought it anyway.
As Donetta looked and prayed over each gift as the retreat was closing, she came across this pin. Immediately she remembered my fascination with a zebra butt. We caught eyes from across the room while Mary Snyder was speaking and Donetta started laughing out loud. I didn’t know why. I just smiled and giggled back.
Donetta ran up to me after the retreat with this gift.
A gold zebra pin!
God knew I would accidentally share about the zebra butt. He even had Donetta travel from Arizona to Florida (I traveled from Colorado to Florida) with an unusual pin just for me.
Now I have physical proof God has an amazing sense of humor.

Thank you, Donetta, for seeing more than most! Thank you for the special gift.
Donetta says
Thank you for the gift of humor my dear Turtle Dove. It was a moment etched with humor in my heart for ever. Even now it makes me want to chuckle.
Butt…then creative humor is Gods design.

Oh how many times God has just showed up in an obscure way in my own life just to let me know that He really is a God of details…thanks for sharing this! Stories shared help grow each others faith!

God absolutely has a sense of humor! What a beautiful 'God-moment' you experienced!

I love that story. Strange as it seems, I can understand why you would take pictures of zebra butts. The stripe pattern is really interesting… ๐

Zebra butts are quite amazing! Now, how about 41 yr old middle-aged butts?
I could give that Zebra a run for its money!!!
Love you!!!!

You know, I'd look a lot like that zebra's butt if I was in prison garb.
I just love how the Lord worked all these things out special, just for you. How awesome is that?
