In short, this morning was crazy! Not the everything went wrong crazy or the strange music video that no one understands crazy, but the wow I couldn't imagine all of this happening THIS MORNING crazy. So here's how it went...
I woke up and went through my usual routine (I won't bore you with the details), and was sitting at the table eating my breakfast and reading a "A Walk to Remember". My mom was talking on the phone, so basically no one was paying attention to the time. I happened to realize it was already 7:40 and I should have left at 7:30, so calmly I tell my mom that we need to go and we climb into the car. We start to drive and once we'd gone on the back road to our house (and entered the no phone service zone) we started to hear a very strange sound coming from my side of the car. So, my mom pulls to the side of the road and I climb out to discover a flat tire. This wasn't just a leaking tire that was only partially flat. This was whopping whole in the side of the tire and rim dragging on the ground flat. Sooo.....yeah that stunk, but we drove back home (very slowly mind you) and swapped out cars. We drove into town and my mom dropped me off at the coffee shop on main. I was late for bible study and still hadn't had any coffee, and in my mad dash to get to my friends that were waiting I realized that sugar offsets the coffee if you pour a large amount in a cup that is already full of coffee and creamer, well lets say it kinda spills. So there I was standing in my coffee-covered glory in the middle of a coffee shop. Yep that's me. Anyways, that was all pretty random and in the midst of it all I had to thank God. I realized I have come to know that God is my peace and rest and I can come to him amidst my troubles. Even is that's just saying, "Lord I trust you to be my peace right know because with out you I'm going to be freaked-out and stressed-out". It was funny how in all that happened to me this morning God used that to show me that he is there all the time, and the amazing thing for me was realizing that and experiencing that peace this morning. It was pretty amazing and I hope that you will also come to know that God loves you SOOOO much and he IS your everything and you can turn to him in times of trial. Anyways, we'll see how the rest of the day goes! ;) Toodles!
