It Suddenly Dawned on Me

Have you ever had an epiphany? Sure you have. I had one this morning. I woke up, yawned, stretched and then laid there quietly for a moment and it suddenly dawned on me why I'm where I am in life. Well, one reason that is.

I got up, got my cup of coffee and got on that ever popular website called Facebook. Two big pictures popped up right in front of my eyes to actually confirm my earlier epiphany.

God has been faithful. He has answered my prayers time and time again. And He has even done things for me without my asking. Now that's the kind of man to have around!

But I noticed when I started to get my mind off myself and started praying more for others, I started to be blessed even more. I can't begin to tell you how wonderful friends, old and new, have been to me.

However, there have been people who have greatly disappointed me too. So what did I used to do when disappointments hit me? Cry, moan, gripe, slam things down. I have to admit sometimes I still do some of that. But actually now I pray for whomever has disappointed me. It actually makes me feel better than moaning and groaning. Gotta admit I still cry though.

So, here I am, where I am. I can't get out and go and do on my own like I used to. Not yet. But I can stay at home and pray. So as you go about your day, your life, just remember there is someone praying for you that you may not know all that well. Or someone you do know. Scary thought? Nah, just be thankful.

The Lord is up to something.
