Broken water flask

Last night, the internal portion of the retro water flask that Faith was holding came off and crashed (yes, that was how loud the impact was when I first heard it!) into the wash basin! Thank God Faith wasn't cut or injured!

Apparently, I think the glue inside the water flask had given way and couldn't hold the whole thing together... there were metal fragments all over the place and we had to be very careful when we cleaned up the mess. The impact had been so great that some fragments even flew a few metres away, and how Faith wasn't cut must only have been God's protection! Thank you, Jesus!

Even as I reflect now, I am thankful that the incident happened only when Faith was pouring the flask at the wash basin, and not while any of us were pouring the flask at the dinning table or elsewhere! The impact had been contained at the basin, and I can't imagine what could have happened if it happened elsewhere! Thank you again, Jesus!

Moral of the story: Pour your water flask/kettle at the basin and nowhere else!
