Yesterday was a frustrating day. The Mechanic was supposed to come pick up my car, but when I called him all I heard was due to family problems he couldn’t. I though to myself, what? That’s not my problem, I need my car fixed! Well, this sent me into an emotional spiral down fall. And for the rest of the afternoon I was just beside myself. Then I got to thinking!
Philip, WOW, slow down! Just because I got things prioritized in order to get where I need to be, I can’t expect other’s to fall into line. Plus, the man’s got a sick wife. Stop being so selfish! At this time, it’s not all about me! He’s never let me down before … he’ll get to it! With this I simmered down.
I tell you, this period in my life has sure brought me to my knees and has humbled my spirit! When I get my mind set on a plan of action, I expect everything to go accordingly … when it deviates it just throws me emotionally off balance and my bi-polar kicks in. Tell you, it ain’t pretty! Anyway, as the old saying goes; good things come to those who wait. Yes, I’d like to land a job … God only knows how much I would like that! But, reality is, when you turn you problems over to Him, sometimes I’ve just gotta wait … God works within His own timetable … not mine! All I’ve gotta do is trust that He has my back and that He’ll see me through. Like my buddy said; “things will fall into place … just let it happen!” “God will see you through!”
Later in the evening my buddy picked me up to hang out for a while … we had dinner, went for a walk on the pier, sat on the beach for a while, went grocery shopping and came back to my place for a while after which he went home. It was a nice and relaxing evening. It was the kind of evening where we simply unwound, got our frustrations off our chests then enjoyed the rest of our time together. Thankfully, the day ended on a positive note.
