Fork...

Ok, so there's this fork in the road. Now if you take the one way... You remain chilling with your friends, but continually growing poorer. On, the other had, you could take path number 2. You become more wealthy, but you miss you hanging with your friends, a huge amount, and then you also are unable to play guitar(your favorite thing to do) for them.

This is what I was going to say my current dilemna... however you spell that.... is. But, it isn't anymore 'cause I gave it to God. Yup. No more worrying.

Know what else was really sweet? Yesterday my buddy (Nathan) called me up from over near PACI school. Well, he wanted a ride because his car had died.... in a halfhour parking zone. I arrived to find him in a nearby Cafe, and I asked for his keys...
I went out to the car, and sure enough... it wouldn't start. It would turn on the engine problem light. Not a sound of it turning over either. But the battery wasn't dead.... the oil didn't need changing yet.... we had no idea what was wrong with it. He comes out after that and opens up th hood. It's dirty...but nothing we can see is very revealing to us. Then again, we know almost nothing about cars.
So finally after trying about 30 times, he heads off to find a buddy he knows nearby. Suddenly, it was like, oh yeah.... why don't I pray about it. So I got out of the car, walked up to the hood that was open, and put my hand on the engine.
I prayed, 'God, let yourself be glorified through this. In the name of Jesus I ask you to uncease this car and let it run. Thank you. In your son Jesus' name, Amen.' I walked over to the open window and turned the key...........



Nothing. So I did it again. and VRRROOOOOOMMMM!!!

lol.



Nathan came back, 'What did you do?!' 'I asked God to start it', I said. lol. He stood there shocked and then looked up...'Why didn't I think of that God?'

It was an interesting day. And God showed me something that I don't see very often. lol, and if I do, it is hidden from me most of the time then. There have been several stories like that.... ones with storms... moose.... bad road contitions... it's crazy how he provides. :) This is why i will not worry. Because God commands us not to. He has everything under control and in that grace and his sovereignty I can truely walk outside on monday mornings and say, this is a great day. And I don't have anything fall on me, or run me over. It's a heart attitude.

Farewell, and Xie-jin.
May God show you how richly you are blessed today.
Shalom
