Romans 12:12
Let your hope keep you joyful, be patient in your troubles, and pray at all times.
So I am currently stuck in my car waiting on a train. What do I mean by stuck? Well, there was a train on the track in front of me so I turned on the road before I got to it.
That didn’t work out so well because there was a train stopped on that road too!
Can you say a lesson in patience?
Yes, friends and family and all those that know me all too well, I CAN hear your laughter!
No one has ever accused me of being patient.
However, today I am taking a minute (or 30) to take a breath and laugh.
Yes, laugh!
Let me let you in on the joke…
I had been driving a car that I am pretty sure was held together by tape and chicken wire. It has selective heat. I mean it has heat as long as the car is moving. However, stop moving, for a light, stop sign or perhaps a train and Boom! Nothing but cold air. On my way home from work, I am generally stopped by a train 2 to 3 times a week.
Earlier this week, I found myself blessed with a new Jeep. I was so excited! God not only gave me heat. He gave me heated seats!
That is what I call a God wink. you know that moment when you can feel God winking at you and saying,”I got ya, girl! I love you!”
Well… now comes today. On my way home, I laughed as I drove over those tracks. I was thinking now that I have heat, I haven’t been stopped by a train.
I am sure somewhere in Heaven angels rolled their eyes as God said, “Challenge Accepted!” you know the rest. Or almost…
The train finally cleared the tracks thirty minutes later and I thought I had finished my blog. However, I had to add to it once I got home. You see, after going over the tracks, I managed to hit EVER SINGLE red light the rest of the way home.
Yep, somewhere God is getting a good laugh at this. You know what, so am I! Because I had heat AND a warm behind!
