I have days like this, do you?

I have days like this , I am ashamed to say. Do you?

 Me: (in a tizzy) : God, can I ask you something?
GOD: Sure.
Me: Promise you won't get mad?
... GOD: I promise.
Me (frustrated): Why did you let so much stuff happen to me today?
GOD: What do you mean?
Me: Well I woke up late,
GOD: Yes
Me: My car took forever to start.
Me (growling): At lunch, they made my sandwich wrong and I had to wait
GOD: Hmmmm..
Me: On the way home, my phone went dead, just as I picked up a call
GOD: All right
Me (loudly): And to top it all off, when I got home, I just wanted to soak my feet in my foot massager and relax, but it wouldn't work. Nothing went right today! Why did you do that?
GOD: Well let me see..... the death angel was at your bed this morning and I had to send one of the other angels to battle him for your life. I let you sleep through that.
Me (humbled): Oh...
GOD: I didn't let your car start because there was a drunk driver on your route that might have hit you if you were on the road
Me (ashamed): ............
GOD: The first person who made your sandwich today was sick and I didn't want you to catch what they have, I knew you couldn't afford to miss work
Me (embarrassed): Oh.....
GOD: Your phone went dead because the person that was calling was going to give a false witness about what you said on that call, I didn't even let you talk to them so you would be covered
Me (softly): I see God
GOD: Oh and that foot massager, it had a short that was going to throw out all of the power in your house tonight. I didn't think you wanted to be in the dark.
Me: I'm sorry God.
GOD: Don't be sorry, just learn to trust me.........in all things, the good and the bad
Me: I WILL trust you God
GOD: And don't doubt that my plan for your day is always better than your plan
Me: I won't God. And let me just tell you God, thank you for everything today.
GOD: You're welcome child. It was just another day being your God and I love looking after my children.

Our life may seenm hard but the reality is Our Father in Heaven takes the brunt of the bad. Talk to your Father  today and thank him for all of the unseen problems that he handles. Should I say he handles without even bothering us with?

The Best Way is my way! Isn't it, God?

Jesus Visits Martha and Mary 38  Now as they went on their way, he entered a village; and a woman named Martha received him into her house.   39  And she had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet and listened to his teaching.  40  But Martha was distracted with much serving; and she went to him and said, “Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Tell her then to help me.”  41  But the Lord answered her, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things;  42  one thing is needful. [ e ]  Mary has chosen the good portion, which shall not be taken away from her.”  RSV Here in the mountains of western North Carolina, spring usually means warmer weather. Of course, we have had snow in April once or twice. It is not supposed to happen that way. It should be the way it is supposed to be.  We like knowing what is going to happen in life don't we?    Often, we pray: God may your will be done.  Father, show us what you want us to do

Did you see what God just did?

  Did you see what God just did? You didn't? Often We are so busy with cooking, cleaning, working and checking on loved ones, that we miss watching all the wonderful things that God created and those moments where his children share the goodness that he shared with us.  I am sure you are just as busy as I was or maybe busier. However, life made me slow down a little. I never knew how much I was missing. There is a lot of joy and goodness around us. Yes, we hear and see so much negative in this world but there is positive goodness all around you. Look!  I started making myself take mini breaks to pay attention to the moments that I had been missing, what was around me. These moments bring us back to the joy and goodness that our souls need to refresh and refuel! Take a few minutes during lunch, in the morning or evening to stop , sit and look at what God did! Look at people being kind to others, squirrels racing, birds flying, people helping others or sharing a smile. Keep your eyes

  The Best is Yet to Come . I received this story from a dear friend. I want to pass the fork to you. Woman and a Fork There was a young woman who had been diagnosed with a terminal illness and had been given three months to live. So as she was getting her things 'in order,' she contacted her Pastor and had him come to her house to discuss certain aspects of her final wishes. She told him which songs she wanted sung at the service, what scriptures she would like read, and what outfit she wanted to be buried in. Everything was in order and the Pastor was preparing to leave when the young woman suddenly remembered something very important to her. 'There's one more thing,' she said excitedly.. 'What's that?' came the Pastor's reply. 'This is very important,' the young woman continued. 'I want to be buried with a fork in my right hand.' The Pastor stood looking at the young woman, not knowing quite what to say. That surprises you, doesn&#
