Where
God wants me to be at this very moment!
Next time your morning seems to be going wrong,
the children are slow
getting dressed, you can't seem to find the car
keys, you hit every traffic
light, don't get mad or frustrated; God is at work
watching over you.
Doubtful? Think about this:
After Sept. 11th, one company invited the remaining
members of other
companies who had been decimated by the attack on
the Twin Towers to share
their available office space. At a morning meeting,
the head of security
told stories of why these people were alive......
and all the stories were
just 'little' things.
As you might know, the head of the company got in
late that day because his
son started kindergarten.
Another fellow was alive because it was his turn
to bring donuts.
One woman was late because her alarm clock didn't
go off in time.
One was late because of being stuck on the NJ Turnpike
because of an auto
accident.
One missed his bus.
One spilled food on her clothes and had to take
time to change.
One's car wouldn't start.
One went back to answer the telephone.
One had a child that dawdled and didn't get ready
as soon as he should have.
One couldn't get a taxi.
The one that struck me was the man who put on a
new pair of shoes that
morning, took the various means to get to work but
before he got there, he
developed a blister on his foot. He stopped at a
drugstore to buy a
Band-Aid. That is why he is alive today.
Now when I am stuck in traffic, miss an elevator,
turn back to answer a
ringing telephone ... all the little things that
annoy me. I think to
myself, this is exactly where God wants me to be
at this very moment.
May God continue to bless you with all those annoying
little things and may
you remember their possible purpose.
Remember whatever happens, happens for a reason.
