God is in the little things
So today I have had a strange day! I woke up late, which for me is not a usual thing. So I was running late to class. I ran around like crazy at home to try and make it to class on time. While running out the door I said a small prayer to God along the lines of, "God help me to make it to class safely without being really late. Just watch over me please."
By the end of that small prayer I was in my car and off to school. Well I was nervous about making to my first day of this class on time (I hate being late.) and wasn't paying attention to my speed until a cop drove by. I looked down and I was doing 60 in a 50, but he ignored me. I thought thank you lord. Then I got to campus with ten minutes to spare and decided to risk parking in the permit required area instead of taking the bus. I got lucky and this guy was pulling out just as I was pulling in, so I didn't have to search for a spot. And the parking lot was full.
I get out of the car and in my rush to leave I had lost my one and only pen. Now with 8 minutes to go I just decide to walk to class and if I need one maybe someone will let me borrow one. Then I spot the parking cop and she is writing tickets left and right, so I just accept the fact that I will have a ticket. Just as I get through thinking that I spot a pen on the sidewalk with nothing wrong with it and there are no other students around the area. So now I have a pen. I finish my walk and make it to class with 5 minutes to spare. Class goes well and I do end up taking notes. Thank you God for the pen. But now I know that between my two classes I have to buy 9 books. Ugh...That's got to be $300 for sure. So I go to the bookstore pick out my books and dred everytime I here the ding of the register. However to my suprise I only spent $150. THANK You God!
Well now it is time to head back to the car. And there it is like I thought it would be. A bright yellow envelope on my windsheild. I hope to myself it is no more than $25. So I open it and to my suprise it is only a warning. THANK YOU GOD! This is evidence at least to me that the Lord is always present and does listen to all our prayers. Thank You God for all that you do!
