Me: God, can I ask You a question?

God: Sure

Me: Promise You won't get mad

God: I promise

Me: Why did You let so much stuff happen to me today?

God: What do u mean?

Me: Well, I woke up late

God: Yes

Me: My car took forever to start

God: Okay

Me: at lunch they made my sandwich wrong & I had to wait

God: Huummm

Me: On the way home, my phone went DEAD, just as I picked up a call

God: All right

Me: And on top of it all off, when I got home ~I wanted to clean my fish tank but couldn't find my step-ladder to climb on and do the risky cleaning from the top.



God: Let me see, the death angel was at your bed this morning & I had to send one of My Angels to battle him for your life. I let you sleep through that

Me (humbled): OH

GOD: I didn't let your car start because there was a drunk driver on your route that would have hit you if you were on the road.

Me: (ashamed)

God: The first person who made your sandwich today was sick & I didn't want you to catch what they have, I knew you couldn't afford to miss work.

Me (embarrassed):Okay

God: Your phone went dead because the person that was calling was going to give false witness about what you said on that call, I didn't even let you talk to them so you would be covered.

Me (softly): I see God

God: Oh and that step-ladder you couldn't find..........maybe that was a good thing cause the top step was broken and you would have now a broken fish tank and neck, now tell me that wouldn't be good right?

Me: I'm Sorry God

God: Don't be sorry, just learn to Trust Me.... in All things , the Good & the bad.

Me: I will trust You.

God: And don't doubt that My plan for your day is Always Better than your plan.

Me: I won't God. And let me just tell you God, Thank You for Everything today.

God: You're welcome child. It was just another day being your God and I Love looking after My Children...

Two verses come to mind..

Romans 8:28
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

James 1:17
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.

What happen to the peeps that GOD decided not to intervene? Are they the subject of his wrath? Has GOD forsaken their cry for help in time of need? Just a Monday's brain teaser.

FYI I'm a Catholic so please hold off on the impending flak :)

Didn't know I was trying to convince you to be a believer. I don't want to turn this nice post into a debate. But his Words of truth are in the bibles. And if we have a personal relationship with him. He speaks to us through words and other methods. Just try listening. You will be blown away with amazement.

Oh, I'm a believer through and through. Still, the most ardent believers among us at times have doubts, even the 12 disciples themselves had had apprehensions. To deny that is to simply dismissing the fact that we're humans in flesh and bones. Like I said, it was a Monday's teaser. Not trying to incite any hostile exchanges though I know most of us on here are capable of cordial discussion, regardless of faith.

Happy reefing :)

As He said ones the wise words (maybe leave wise out but their were great words) "don't hate just dislike and accept the sin",
That said, I do dislike Monday Teasers, God has given you one face, and you keep making yourself another.
