Holiday Confusion?

I'm not sure what is going on what Amazon in Lexington, KY but they have gotten ahold of our name and address and are shipping packages - unordered - to us.  When the first package arrived yesterday, I chatted online with Amazon and gave them the order number that was inside the box.  They had customer service call me.  I again gave the order number.  She said she couldn't find the order in the system "so just keep it, we have no way to track it."  I didn't like that idea for it clearly showed someone had been charged nearly $300 for these items.  So, I googled the company where it came from and sent them an email - which goes through Amazon.  I have not yet gotten a response.

This morning when I opened the front door - I found 4 more boxes from Amazon, Lexington, KY, sitting on our porch.  I opened each one.  Each was a different style, but same item as the others in the first box.  And there is no information, order number or anything within the box as had been in the first one.  These were shipped to us without any information at all.  And this time, no company name on the box - just from Amazon, Lexington, KY.

So, as before, I plan to chat with Amazon and see if I can't clear this up.  I find it funny in that I have several of these items because I like them.  Not anywhere this expensive though.  It is interesting that 4 identical items arrived in the first box, and the next four boxes contained only one - and much different.  I know I have you curious now as to what it is, but if Amazon insists that I keep them for no tracking information, my kids may get them for Christmas gifts!  LOL  Got to keep them guessing!

As I have sat here and thought about it, I'm asking God what is this all about.  Is it something that He is trying to tell me?  I can take it many different ways; different scenarios.  Hmmmm.... stay tuned on this one.  Depending on what Amazon tells me today - or anything I receive from them prior to Christmas on returning or keeping the items - will keep you updated.  I'm trying to keep an open mind as to what this is all about.

So what has surprised you lately that you weren't expecting?  Is it a promotion?  Loss of employment? Sickness?  A special gift you received - or were able to purchase for someone that you didn't think you could?  Did you receive an anonymous gift from Amazon?  What is God showing you in this - is He just blessing you in some way?

Blessings!
