Me (in a tizzy): God, can I ask you something?

God: Sure.

Me: Promise you won’t get mad?

God: I promise.

Me (frustrated): Why did you let so much stuff happen to me today?

God: What do you mean?

Me: Well I woke up late.

God: Yes.

Me: My car took forever to start.

God: Okay…..

Me (growling): At lunch, they made my sandwich wrong and I had to wait.

God: Hmmmmm…

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

God: All right.

Me (loudly): And to top it all off, when I got home, I just wanted to soak my feet in the foot massager and relax, but it wouldn’t work. Nothing went right today! Why did you do that?

God: Well let me see…. the death angel was at your bed this morning and I had to send another angel 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 might have hit you if you were on the road.

Me (ashamed):……………

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

Me (embarrassed): Oh…….

God: Your phone went dead because the person that was calling was going to give a 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 foot massager, it had a short that was going to throw out all of the power in your house tonight. I didn’t think you wanted to be in the dark.

Me: I’m Sorry God.

God: Don’t be sorry, just learn to trust me….in all things, the good and the bad.

Me: I WILL trust you God.

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.
