The two towers of fire

There is a time when you think that you know every thing and that you are not going to do something stupid right!!!! Take for instants I have been around stoves a fire my whole life and I know how to take care of ashes right?? Right!! So I'm waiting for a man to show up for a bid on trimming my fruit trees. The ashes needs to be taken out so I look for something to haul them out in, and all I can find is a cardboard box. [Now don't get ahead of the story] I get the ashes put into the box and dumped in the dumpster in the corner where it will not start a fire. Then and [this is the good part] I take the empty box over to feed the dogs. I notice that a piece of paper at the bottem of the box is glowing so I let a few ashes cover it up and did't think any more of it. I sat it down by the two water heaters that I had bought special for a job, to have them on hand when they need them, becauce it take four weeks to get them in. Needless to say 10 minutes later Alma came in saying that two water heaters were on fire. We ran out to see what had happen, and by then they were both complety burned up. They burned hot enough to blacken the ceiling and some boxes of toilets that were with in 3 feet of them. My first reaction was disbelief and shock. But then I saw that it was a miracle that it didn't burn all my other toilets and 10 other water heaters and the whole building. So I thanked heavenly father for the lesson and and for keeping it from being a bigger problem. And another thing I found out that the two water heaters that burned where not the right ones, that I ordered for a the special job, and thats the reason they were more exspecive then the other ones. So I got on the phone and call my suppler and told him that I had just burned up the two water heaters, and were not the right ones. And I laughed when he asked for the serial number on them. I said they are burned up and I can see that they are not the right ones. Needless to say he has new ones comming and this time they will be the right ones. The whole time that I had them I kept getting the impression to open one of them up to make sure the they were the right ones and even one of the dogs ripped a big hole in one of them, but I did nothing. So there you go, if you don't follow that little voice that try's to help us do the right thing every day then he will find a way to do it for us. So for me today lesson learned and I sure that I will try to be more receptive tomarrow, and with out a doubt I know that I'm not alone in running this busness and every thing happens for a reason.
