My Sunday school teacher read this in class this past week. I didn't think to ask him where it came from or who wrote it but I wanted to share it with you. I looked for it on the internet and couldn't find it... so this isn't the exact wording... but I wrote it the best I could from memory. I hope it speaks to you the same as it did me.
Me: Lord, I've had a horrible day. Why did you let this happen to me Lord? So many things went wrong.
God: What's the matter my child?
Me: First of all, I overslept. I hate it when I oversleep.
God: I see.
Me: Then, when I got into my car... it wouldn't start. It's a new car... it shouldn't have any problem starting.
God: I understand.
Me: I finally got the car started and ended up late for work. Then, when I got there my cell phone rang and I tried to answer it but the phone died. I couldn't even charge it Lord because I left my charger at home.
God: Yes... I'm listening.
Me: After a long, hard day at work... when I got home, all I wanted to do was soak my feet in my electric foot massager... but of course, it wouldn't work. It was broken.
Why Lord? Why would you let all these things happen to me?
God: I'm sorry you had a bad day today. I was there with you through it all. Before you woke up this morning, an angel of death was headed toward you and I had to send one of my angels to fight him back. I thought I'd let you sleep through that.
Me: Oh. I'm so sorry, Lord.
God: Then, when you got in your car, there was a drunk driver on the road a few blocks away... so I stalled the car long enough to get him out of your way.
Me: I understand, Lord.
God: And the phone? Well, someone was going to call you today and discuss things that would take you further from me... so I thought it would be better just to stay off the phone today.
Me: (Ashamed)
God: Then, that foot massager... well... there was a short in the cord that was going to hurt you. It wouldn't have hurt you too bad... but I thought after the day you had you could do without that.
Me: Forgive me Lord for not trusting you... and thank you for taking care of me today. Thank you for all you do for me. I love you Lord.
Hope you all have a GREAT day
and remember to give thanks to our
Lord and Savior who is always with us!
