Running Late
Jul 10, 2011
I was running late for church this morning. But as I readied myself, I was thinking about praying today for my granddaughter.
Without even getting my makeup on I knew the Lord told me to write the prayer out that I was to pray over her so as to not forget anything the Lord was giving me to pray. I knew it would run me late but I quickly went to the computer to type out my prayer. Once finished, I printed it and I felt the Lord tell me to check my email.
Although it put me later, I checked and found nothing. Not feeling I should be ungrateful, I thanked God for whatever reason there was for my delay.
Once in the car I took a minute to put on some powder and lipstick before pulling out of the driveway.
It wasn’t but a few minutes for me to appreciate the quick prayer of “thank you for my delay” and to understand why. As I approached the park I pass on my way there were two police cars in the left lane. As I got closer and passed, there was a pickup headed the wrong direction and the bed on the drivers’ side completely crumpled.
Again, I said thank you to the Lord for saving me from any involvement in that wreck.
God is a great God.
