Well I have to say this has been quite the day! It felt like anything and everything was pushing my buttons today! Dang devil! He was really hittin' me hard today! Especially in the form of other people that I had to deal with! It was all I could do to control my patience today, which isn't usually like me for those of you that don't know. I'm usually pretty calm and laid back about stuff, but today was the exception to the rule! In a world full of so much negativity, it's hard to stand against all the junk being thrown at you. Not gonna lie, on my drive home from work tonight, I literally just wanted to scream at anyone and everyone, and was consumed in my thoughts. At least that was until I took a moment to listen to the radio. K-Love was the radio station I had on and This Is Your Life by Switchfoot was playing. I don't know if any of you have ever listened to this song, but it is so powerful and exactly what God wanted me to hear at that moment. "This is your life, are you who you want to be?" are the part of the lyrics that was especially like whamo! Is this who you(me) want to be? Someone who gets frustrated easily at worldly things? My answer was no! As soon as I got home, I opened up my Bible and started looking for scriptures! These three are some that I found that really hit me! :)
"I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." John 16:33
"He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away." Rev 21:4
"A man's wisdom gives him patience; it is to his glory to overlook an offense." Proverbs 19:11
I hope you enjoyed reading about my short driving revelation! We definitely serve an awesome God!
