3 PM...
It's just really neat to see God moving in the midst of all the busy-ness...
It's hard not to get too boggled down with things and let tasks overun your life. Coming home after school, I realized how much stuff that needed to get done (people to respond to, catering to different people's needs, etc.) that I had to just detach myself from the computer and just breathe...that was around 3pm.
Went out for dinner with our OMF diners' club (nickname that we thought up), got home and called up Hyal. I just wanted to tell her that I got a coupon for Aldo (15% off!)...we talked about our day and she seemed intently interested, so I told her the details (including the almost breakdown fest that I had earlier in the day). She kept saying..."whoah, that's crazy..." I had no idea why she was saying this over and over again. Apparently, she felt compelled to pray for me at exactly 3pm... the things that she prayed for (she wouldn't tell me what they were) was related to OMF ministry. I was blown away by how much God knows and how much He cares for my little stresses. Although there's so much suffering and crap going on in our world, I find it so amazing that He still has the time to make it known that He "has my back."
As you could read from my previous blogs, there's just so much complaining that I do throughout the day and it probably annoys many people (including the man upstairs!)...Even though I'm not the best person to use (well, who is anyway?!), He still chooses to show me that He cares for me and comforts me in ways that are inexplicable to the non-believer. How can I not be utterly compelled to live out my faith as a response to His goodness?!
