A very long stroll!

As I awoke this morning I was excited to see the sun shining through my window. My plan was to walk to church and back. Everything went as planned and I left my apartment about 10:30... plenty of time to make it in time for the service... or so I thought. I really wasn't in a big hurry, but was pretty much just enjoying the day. Now, last night I looked at a map and memorized the name of the street I needed to look for so I was pretty confident about where I was going. After walking and walking and walking some more and not finding the correct street... I began to get a little frustrated. Thinking "why didn't I bring a map", "where am I", "Surely it must be the next street"... on and on my thoughts went. Until finally, I decided that it would be best to turn around and go back home before I really didn't know where I was anymore.

An hour after setting out on my "little" stroll I arrived back home. I turned on my handy dandy little lap top and went on line to listen to a couple of sermons. I'm so thankful for that resource and the encouragement it was! I ended up listening to a sermon on allowing God to work even when things don't go the way we think they should. Hmmm... how appropriate for my day!
